    I often want to continue the exact rate of a parameter of a layer, indefinitely after the last keyframe, without having to actually make another keyframe and do the match.

    Is there an expression that will continue the motion after the keyframe at the speed/rate of the last keyframe.

    ohhh, this would be handy

    So I don’t need the “type =”?
    I love this expression, wish I had more opportunities to use it.

    [glenn stewart] “So I don’t need the “type =”?”

    No, that just creates a variable named ‘type’ that contains the string “continue” and then passes that variable into the function where it is stored in another variable.

    If you just type “continue” instead, you’re skipping the first variable assignment step.
