  Time Remapped Layer Slider Control Expression

  Posted by Nimrod Zin on February 17, 2021 at 12:44 pm

  Hi…

  I have this expression on a layers opacity property. The Layer is time remapped so I could loop it in the original comp. When the Slider control is keyframes the expression doesn’t work.

  I get no Warning ⚠️ it just doesn’t do anything.

  I assume it has something to do with the fact it’s either time remapped or keyframes or both.

  Did anyone encounter this problem and found a solution? Maybe some kind of a value at time that I can’t figure out how to phrase?

  effectName=thisLayer.name;

  comp(“1”).layer(“1”).effect(effectName)(“Slider”)

  Thanks ?

  ok… figured it out.

  effectName=thisLayer.name;

  comp(“1”).layer(“1”).effect(effectName)(“Slider”).valueAtTime(time+PRECOMP_TIME_AT_COMP(“1”)
