  • Define a list of items to a slider to add to a .mogrt in After Effects

    Hello,
    I need to allow the color of a shape to change, but only within a specified palette (the client’s brand palette), and I need to export it as a .mogrt. I have seen tutorials online where After Effects artists are applying a list of items to a slider, and allowing the end user to use a slider to choose which look they want to apply (though I can’t figure out how this is done). In my situation, I want the user to be able to scrub through the slider, which contains all colors of the brand palette, but not define their own colors. I understand how sliders work in the framework of single numeric variables, but not lists of items. Any information is appreciated.

    Check out this recent thread:

    Toward the bottom, I posted a sample that uses a slider and an expression to govern a palette. Let me know what questions you have after you take a look.
