    Mograph & COFFEE

    Posted by Simon Cam on May 12, 2009 at 1:09 pm

    Hello there!

    I’m a long timer AE-er and know expressions pretty well. I’ve just started getting my head round using COFFEE (applied as an expression through the tag rather than writing actual plugs or anything). It’s all very cool, but I’ve come up against something I can’t find any documentation for.

    Is there any way to influence Mograph clones through COFFEE or xpresso? Sorta like using the formula effector where you have access to the ID of the clone and can influence its scale etc, only I need a bit more control.

    Thanks!

    There are several xpresso nodes that come with mograph. Look under modules>mograph in the online manual.

    Hi there,

    Thanks for that, but I think the nodes can only GET values and not SET them unfortunately. I’ve moved onto Thinking Particles, which does appear to give you a bit more control with the SetData node.

    Cheers, sCam
