move object/layer automatically and make it a loop
what I want is to move an object/layer along the direction when it hits the edge of the screen it moves off the screen then moves in from the other side of the screen so it will look like a loop regardless of the timeline

Hi Dave, while offset sort of works it’s not exactly what I want because as far as I know the moving speed is still bound to the time line and actual width/height of the screen, what I’d like to see is you set a variable for speed(say 5 units or pixels) then the transform goes on forever and once it hits the border it goes to the other side always with that speed, so how long is the loop and how far it travels don’t really matter, I wonder is this achievable with expression?

Hi Wei,
I would personally keyframe the movement once, precompose the layer and add the loop expression to it. You add the loop expression to the Time remap property. Hit “Ctrl+Alt+T” to toggle the time remap effect and add the expression: loop_out(“cycle”,0)
If you’re not sure how to do it, here are the steps in detail:
