  • Autoscale bar chart based on maximum value

    Posted by Søren Kristensen on July 27, 2021 at 3:51 pm

    I am working on a bar chart template for my colleagues who have a basic understanding of After Effects and was wondering if it is possible to always have the bar representing the highest value be displayed at (roughly) the same height in pixels, no matter if the value it represents is 0.00067 units or 45.923 units. I know it’s not the hardest thing in the world to move some decimals before inputting the data, or add a global scale on the y axis, but I am trying to make it as simple to use as possible.

    You could use the linear expression. Or assign the values a rank 1-5 and then always use a bar height for those ranks.
