  • opacity that holds on a random “hit”…

    Posted by Erin Shelby on November 12, 2007 at 3:37 am

    Hi all,

    I have a solid that has the following expression on opacity:

    seedRandom(true);
    x = random(8);
    if (x=1) 100 else 0;

    so, as you all know, it’s basically a 1 in 8 chance if the frame is full opacity. Right? But the problem is I want it to “hold” for 10 frames if the random number “hits” – then after the hold to go back to the ‘randoming’ process. Is this possible within after effects? I know I could possibly do some checking function – but I’m not sure how to make it elegant…

    -E
