Position Move on layer’s inPoint from multiple variable specified Coordinates randomly per layer?
Okay so what i want to do is have have a grid of 20 boxes (100×100 pixels). And I want the boxes to slide into a grid formation from their inpoints. I would arrange them into a perfect grid but then i would like the inpoint to animate them into that perfect grid. Meaning i would like each layer to random choose to come from the top, bottom, left or right axis then settle into place. And I would like for the move to be specific to a range of movement, lets say 100 pixels in any direction. is that possible? I know about making expression for inpoints. But how do you make multiple variable for inpoint expressions.

Something like this maybe:
easeTime = .5; // ease into postion over .5 second
easeAmt = 100;
seedRandom(index,true);
offset = random() < .5 ? [easeAmt,0] : [0,easeAmt];
offset *= random() < .5 ? 1 : -1;
t = time - inPoint;
value + easeOut(t,0,easeTime,offset,[0,0]);

PERFECT !!!! Thanks again.

Is it possible to add the same in point animation to the out point. So it randomly comes in and it randomly comes out.
Thanks Again sir. -
Something like this maybe:
easeTime = .5; // ease into postion over .5 second
easeAmt = 100;
if (time < (inPoint+outPoint)/2){
seedRandom(index,true);
t = time - inPoint;
}else{
seedRandom(index*1001,true);
t = outPoint - time;
}
offset = random() < .5 ? [easeAmt,0] : [0,easeAmt];
offset *= random() < .5 ? 1 : -1;
value + easeOut(t,0,easeTime,offset,[0,0]);

Had another query,
How can I apply this same animation but instead of using the inpoint of the layer to activate, it moves randomly with layer markers. So if I have 2 or 3 layer markera on the layer, it would move 3 times in either an X or Y position move?Here is what I got:
sx = 100; // slide distance
sd = .25; // slide duration
seedRandom(index,true);
offset = random() < .5 ? [sx] : [sx];
offset *= random() < .5 ? 1 : -1;m =marker;
x = 0;
if (m.numKeys > 0){
n = m.nearestKey(time).index;
if (time < m.key(n).time) n--;
if (n > 0){
t = time - m.key(n).time;
x = ease(t,0,sd,(n-1)*offset,n*0);
}
}
value + [x,0]
