After Effects expression “Expecting: ;” or “Expecting: )”error.

[Brian Charles]

What exactly are you trying to achieve with this code?

It looks like time remapping but results in a 2 dimensional array – time remapping needs a single value, not 2.

What is 3A, it is never defined in the expression?

Could a switch statement better serve your requirements.

yep, the problem is 3A… i think you may have meant 3*A..?

also you could use ‘else if’ statements which would simplify your expression a little.

A = timeToFrames(t = time + thisComp.displayStartTime, fps = 1.0 / thisComp.frameDuration, isDuration = false);

if (A<20) y =A/4;
else if(A<40) y=3*A/4;
else if(A<60) y=A/2;
else if(A<80) y=(3*A-40)/2;
else if(A<100) y=3*A/4;
else y=(5*A-200)/4;

Thx for the answers and yes the problem was “3A”. it should be 3*A. And “Brian”, it wasn’t a time remaping. it was scale remaping. i want my object scale with a graphic. and i find the answer in 5 min after i post problem here. Then i want write solutuion to here but i cant find the topic. Thx anyway. you are helping people and i respect that.
