    Index Start + End values of a Range Selector applied to a text layer

    Posted by John Burgess on January 30, 2023 at 4:46 pm

    Is it possible to apply an index expression to the start and end values of a range selector.

    I want to be able to achieve what is highlighted in the screengrab without having to manually update each value.

    Try this for Start:

    (thisProperty.propertyGroup(3).propertyIndex - 1)*2

    and this for End:

    (thisProperty.propertyGroup(3).propertyIndex - 1)*2 + 1
