Counter clockwise using expressions
I am trying to use a couple of elements rotating in several directions (clockwise and counter clockwise), using expressions. Previously keyframes were used, but I want to use expressions, as the length of the animation is about 10 mins and setting keyframes is almost impossible.
Any help would be great.
time*120 // 120 can be different depending on the speed I wish to use. -

Hey Stephan, maybe it sounds too simple, but adding minus in front ‘-time’ will go other way around. Unless, its not what you are looking for!

Thanks Thomas, will try when I can.
I do have one more question. Is it possible to set a start position, as at the moment the rotation always starts at 0.

Stephan – if manually, then its just an addition of a number like ‘time + 45’, etc.
If more dynamically, you could also multiply it by an index, or random number generator – there are many ways on doing this, depending on your needs !
