  • expression to display name of the source footage

    Posted by George Matthew on November 25, 2008 at 9:35 am

    Have a set of still images sequenced with a fade from one layer to the next.
    Images are named as IMG_001, IMG_002…

    Is it somehow possible to use an expression that will iterate through the existing layers and display the original name of the image, Without going through the hassle of manually entering the name of the source footage in the comp?

    ie, the expression would display the name of the source item of the current layer showing in the comp.
