  Slider effect problem

  Posted by Thom Buiting on January 3, 2018 at 1:09 pm

  Hi all,

  Currently I’m working on a animation but something isn’t working out.
  I have one text layer (SHOTSPEED 0 KM/H). In this layer I want “0” to slide up to “100”.

  If I use Slider Control it affects the whole text layer which is not what I want because then I’ll lose the words.

  Does anyone know how to put the Slider Control (or something similar) only on the 0 without using multiple layers? If I use multiple layers I can’t get the spacing between the words right.

  Hopefully someone knows the answer ????

  Cheers,
  Thom

  You need to use an expression that includes the value of the slider inside your text string, like this:

  "SHOTSPEED " + parseInt(effect("Slider Control")("Slider")) + " KM/H"
