    Multiple number counters and gaps

    Posted by Ian Ellerby on January 22, 2015 at 5:54 pm

    Hi, if anybody who could help me please

    I have to create a sequence of 10,000 frames (comp size 1080×1080), first frame will be full of 1’s, as in
    1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
    1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 etc to fill the whole frame. (So that’s 1 gap 1 gap 1 gap 1 etc)

    Next frame will be full of 2’s
    2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
    2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 etc

    etc etc all the way up to 10,000.

    I can see how using an expression from Dan Ebberts (thanks Dan) I can take one number layer and go from 1-10000 in however many seconds I need, but that’s just one number, and not many over a whole frame. If I repeat that number sequence to it’s right, the gap between them increases or decreases as the numbers change size. The gap needs to be consistent between each number.

    Can anybody help me here please?

    Thanks in advance
    Ian

    Hi
    In the end I added two CC RepeTile effects, and was able to repeat the counter and create the gaps between them all.
    Thanks
