  Number animation from CVS

  Posted by Roy Metni on June 23, 2023 at 2:25 pm

  I have this expression and it’s working normally . the thing is, It’s only reading from Column 1 in the CSV. I want it to read from column 2 . What should I modify in this expression ?

  _column = 0;
  _row = time*30;
  _sliderValue = footage(“Stats.csv”).dataValue([_column,_row])

  I’m guessing its not your expression, so I’m going to feel free to critise it for poor style choice for variables names 😜

  But the top line _column looks like its the variable you want to change.

  Personally, I think the safest option here is to add a slider (hit ENTER and rename it to “Column Slider” to your layer and then use this version of the expression:

  var column = praeInt(effect("Column Slider")("Slider"));
  var row = time*30;
  var sliderValue = footage(“Stats.csv”).dataValue([column,row])

  Then you can set the column to 0, 1, 2 etc…
