    Hi Chris
    Dan certainly cracked the way to create counters with expressions.
    For all of those who don’t feel comfortable or experienced enough with expressions, or just want to save some time, there are really nice tools to create counters in After Effects.
    One of them is Counter Preset which was create in the past year, that can create all Counters with a simple Effect UI.
    You can take a check it out at:
