adding bounce to ease expression (no keyframes)?
I have two points that are being generated by the size of a text layer.
I am moving it on screen with:p1=thisComp.layer(“CONTROL”).effect(“OFF SCREEN POSITION”)(“Point”);
p2=thisComp.layer(“CONTROL”).effect(“MAIN POSITION”)(“Point”);
ease(time,2,3,p1,p2)Is there a way to add bounce / inertia expression to the ease expression?
There are no keyframes.
p1=thisComp.layer("CONTROL").effect("OFF SCREEN POSITION")("Point");
p2=thisComp.layer("CONTROL").effect("MAIN POSITION")("Point");
ease(time,2,3,p1,p2) -

The simplest way would be keep the calculation you already have, hide it , and add another layer that references it with a lagging formula. See the attached example
inertia = 0.6;
stiffness = 0.3;
// you can try differen values between 0-1 for theselagValue = calcValue(0);
f= thisComp.frameDuration;
will=0;for (t=0; t<=time; t+=f) {
delta = calcValue(t) - lagValue;
will = will * inertia + delta*stiffness ;
lagValue +=will
}lagValue;
function calcValue(t) {
// Here we are pointing to the value want to base our lag on:
return thisComp.layer("Green Solid 4").transform.position.valueAtTime(t);
}

Great. will try.
I can see how that watching something else thing will be very useful for more advanced parenting.
Whilst I wait for nodes, and multi-processing… sigh -
Now trying to adapt it to be a bounce back to match an ease and whizz keyframe anim.
TRying to get my head round how a function works vs keyframes
