continued problems with calendar using expressions
to anyone who can help or Filip Vandueren, I am still having problems trying to make this year-long calendar with day counter…
Here is the expression I have put in:
dateValue=thisComp.date 2;(“Layer with Numbers effect”).effect(“Numbers”)(4); // change the layerName
startValue=1; // the Slider-value at which you want the day counter to be 1
days=180; // number of days you want to countdayCounter=linear(dateValue, startValue-1, startValue+days-1,0, days)
the layers name is called: date 2
Any idea why the expression is not working?

It’s screwed. Try this:
dateValue=thisComp.layer(“Numbers”).effect(“Numbers”)(4); // change the layer name
startValue=1; // the Slider value at which you want the day counter to be 1
days=180; // number of days you want to countdayCounter=linear(dateValue, startValue-1, startValue+days-1,0, days)

the first line should be:
dateValue=thisComp.layer("date 2").effect("Numbers")(4); // change the layerName
The name has to be in the brackets and quoted.
