  • 1 Dimension Scale attached to sliders

    Posted by J.d. Vaillancourt on July 17, 2012 at 2:36 pm

    Hi, I can do a 1 dimension wiggle on scale with:

    wiggle(1,20);
    [w[0], value[1]]

    But unfortunately I need this comp to have an exact loop point, so I need to attach my wiggle to sliders set to 0 for the beginning and end comp. I did this for the rotation properties no problem, but I’m having trouble doing it with scale because it wants to wiggle both dimensions with the slider. Here’s what I have:

    2 sliders named “TPS” and “Scale”

    Then on the scale property:
    wiggle(effect(“TPS”)(“Slider”),effect(“Scale”)(“Slider”));
    [w[0],value[1]]

    I know the last line isn’t working with the sliders, but I don’t know where to go from here.

    Thank you for your help in advance!!

    wiggle(effect("TPS")("Slider"),effect("Scale")("Slider"));
    [w[0],value[1]]

    I think it needs to look like this:

    w = wiggle(effect(“TPS”)(“Slider”),effect(“Scale”)(“Slider”)); [w[0],value[1]]

    Be careful about animating the TPS slider, it probably won’t do what you expect.
