    Hi.

    I created a Logo with some text in it saying ” BUY NOW “. I use this expression to make the text blink constantly, loopOut("pingpong") or just loopOut()Now I want the blinking to stop after like 5 sec.

    I am missing something here, I try write this loopOutDuration("cycle",5)

    what can I do to make the blinking stop after 5 sec and the text to remain on the screen??

    Something like this probably:

    if (time < 5)
    loopOut()
    else
    value

    Hi Dan.

    Thanks for allways replying 🙂

    Can I replace/copy & paste the code if(time < 5)
    loopOut()
    else
    value
    ?
    Should value remain as value or am I suppose to enter a number i.g 5 sec?

    You can replace value with whatever you want it to be after 5 seconds, or leave it as “value” if you want it to have the value of the last keyframe.

    Hi Dan

    I get this “Function loopOut is undefined. Expression is disabled.” When I input the code in the source text..

    can I get around this?

    Source Text? I’m confused. That expression is for Opacity. Does that not do what you need?

    Sorry Dan. It worked fine.

    I got so tired and confused last night, that instead of putting the code on the opacity I set it in a wrong parameter!!!!

    Again thanks for allways being helpfull 🙂
