Error in my expression
Good morning
I’m new to expressions in AE, and i’m having some problems…
I want a wiggle to start exactly at time 4:19 and increase over time.
So i typed into the property:if( time > 4.19 ){
t=(time-5)*20;
wiggle(5,t);
}But it doesn’t work…when i exit the expression editor, it seems working, (the triangle is grey and the values are red), but when i move around the “current time indicator” in the timeline, the expression crashes and the triangle with the ! becomes yellow.
Even if i replace 4.19 (float) with an integer value, like 4, the expression doesn’t work.Can anybody help me?
Thanks! -

The problem is that you’re not telling the expression what to do if the time is less than 4.19. Try it this way:
if( time > 4.19 ){
t=(time-5)*20;
wiggle(5,t);
}else{
value

Wow, that worked.
I always programmed in C and Java and i never had to type “else” every time i type “if”. That’s new for me.
Thanks!
