Activity Forums Adobe After Effects Expressions Particular emitter-Time Delay

  • Particular emitter-Time Delay

    Posted by Jack Sewell on June 13, 2010 at 10:37 pm

    I have a Particular emitter following a write-on effect. However, I’d like to delay it by about .5 of a second.

    The current expression is:

    thisComp.layer(“Dragon path.PNG”).effect(“Write-on”)(“Brush Position”)

    I’d be infinitely grateful if someone could tell me the expression needed ad where to place it.

    Many thanks,
    Jack

    Just replace your current expression with this:

    thisComp.layer(“Dragon path.PNG”).effect(“Write-on”)(“Brush Position”).valueAtTime(time-.5)
