  Easing back Shape layer Trim path Expression

  Posted by Obed Ampong on October 13, 2018 at 8:56 am

  Hi,

  Please is possible for this expression on Trim path End properties to be adjusted that after it eases from 0 to 100, it will hold the 100 for 5 seconds then it will ease back from 100 to 0?
  Thanks

  Regards
  Obed

  minDur = 1;
maxDur = 5;
seedRandom(100,true);
dur = random(minDur,maxDur);
t = time - inPoint;
ease(t,0,dur,0,100);

  Like this maybe:

  
minDur = 1;
maxDur = 5;
seedRandom(100,true);
dur = random(minDur,maxDur);
t = time - inPoint;
if (t < dur){
ease(t,0,dur,0,100);
}else{
ease(t,dur+5,2*dur+5,100,0)
}

  You’d have to pick a duration, like this:

  
dur = 3;
t = time - inPoint;
if (t < dur){
ease(t,0,dur,0,100);
}else{
ease(t,dur+5,2*dur+5,100,0)
}
