number counting expression
Hi there,
I’m trying to animate a number sequence, for increasing youtube views. I’d like to start at 10,000 and finish at 20,000,000.
I’m trying to use the slider, but it won’t allow me to add commas into the number. I assume I need to make an expression, however I’ve never done this before so any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Kelly

You can use this expression, courtesy of Dan Ebberts:
startValue = 0;
endValue = 120000000;
dur = 23; //secondss = "" + Math.round(linear(time,0,dur,startValue,endValue));
if (s.length > 6)
s.substr(0,s.length-6) + "," + s.substr(-6,3) + "," + s.substr(-3,3)
else if (s.length > 3)
s.substr(0,s.length-3) + "," + s.substr(-3,3)
else
