Add a loop after a if?
Hey guys, I’m trying to make a character blink with a -50 to +50 slider, and also I have a dropdown menu that would modify that to be like from 0 to +50.
That part is working but, I also would like to make those keyframes to loopOut(“clycle”)
Is there a way add that on this code:d = thisComp.layer(“ctrl”).effect(“Dropdown Menu Control”)(“halfblink”);
x = value[0];
if (d ==2)
m=linear(x, -50,50,0,50);
else
m = x;
[m,0];
Tks in advance

Hi Ricardo.
If you have only 2 keyframes, this should work.
d = 2;
t1 = key(1).time;
t2 = key(2).time;
x = valueAtTime(((time - t1) % 2) + t1)[0];
m = d == 2 ? linear(x, -50, 50, 0, 50) : x;
[m, 0];If you have more keyframes, you should change the values for t1 and t2 to be the time of the second-last and last keyframes.
I modified your if statement into a ternary operator for faster execution.

Always saving me Andrei, thank you very much!
Also I tested here and actually independent of how many keys I have, just keeping the key(1) and key(2) as you did works better than just the last 2 ones.
BTW I started the ukramedia expression course you recommended. That is really pretty good, changed my life, tks again.

Also, never going to use if statement again
