Count up numbers 1000 at a time.
Hi.
I’ve recently created an AE composition with a text layer that contains a number. My plan is to animate the text so that the number counts up 1000 at a time.
For example, for 3 seconds, I’d like the text to count from 0 to 75000 in 1000 intervals (i.e. 0, 1000, 2000, 3000, … ,75000).
Anyone’s help is much appreciated.
Thanks.

This expression will do what you describe. Twirl open your text layer in the timeline panel, then twirl open the Text group, then Alt+click the stopwatch for the Source Text property and paste the following:
Math.floor(linear(time, inPoint, inPoint + 3, 1, 75)) + "000"English translation:
As we progress in time from the layer’s in point to 3 seconds after the in point, go from 1 to 75 (linear), drop any decimal points (Math.floor), and tack on three zeroes to the end.
