  Expression Help. ‘Every 3 frames move right 1 pixel’?

  Posted by Quentin Poynter on March 21, 2008 at 6:44 pm

  Hello,
  Im trying to solve an issue i am having with aliasing on sliding text.

  I would like to drop an expression on my text layer (bitpmap).

  ie, i want to slide the text 30 pixels over 90 frames.
  If i do that using simple keyframes, the text blurs a bit when not on an whole number frame( 30.3)

  Is there an expression i can use so that the text is moved one whole pixel, but not until 3 frames has passed?

  Thanks very much for any help!

  Give this a try:

  value + Math.floor(timeToFrames(time)/3)
