Control loop with slider

[Dan Ebberts]

You can build your own loop expression, which you could control with a slider like this:


s = effect("Slider Control")("Slider");
if (numKeys > 1){
n = Math.floor(time/key(numKeys).time);
if (n < Math.round(s)){
t = time%key(numKeys).time;
valueAtTime(t);
}else{
key(numKeys).value;
}
}else
value

Hi Dan, thanks for help me.

This code work perfectly.

Thanks very much

I saw just now, but there is a problem . When I have loop starting at frame 0 the code works perfectly , but if I want to start the loop at another time , for example frame 30, this code add 30 stuck frames before start each loop. There is a way to solve ?

Yeah, that was a little sloppy on my part–sorry (I made some assumptions). This should behave more like loop() does:


s = effect("Slider Control")("Slider");
if ((numKeys > 1) && (time > key(numKeys).time)){
n = Math.floor((time - key(numKeys).time)/(key(numKeys).time-key(1).time));
if (n < Math.round(s-1)){
t = (time - key(numKeys).time)%(key(numKeys).time-key(1).time);
valueAtTime(key(1).time + t);
}else{
key(numKeys).value;
}
}else
value

Hi Dan

Thanks for help me .
The code now work perfectly.

I realized the other code will also be useful in other things, so no need to worry , I’m very happy with the results.

Sorry my bad english.

Thanks very much.
