Random Scale Multiple Layers

[Dan Ebberts]

So what’s the issue? Do you need wiggle to affect scale in only one dimension? Have you tried something and it didn’t work? More info would be helpful.

Dan hello,
my problem is simple – > I have 35 layers of “sun rays” and I would like all of them to scale randomly (at a different scale and rate from one another) on the their Y axis but I was looking for the option of controlling that with a single slider rather than applying a wiggle on each one of them with different parameters.

You could start with something like this:

minFreq = 1;
maxFreq = 3;
minAmp = 25;
maxAmp = 100;

seedRandom(index,true);
freq = random(minFreq,maxFreq);
amp = random(minAmp,maxAmp);
w = wiggle(freq,amp);
[value[0],w[1]]

If you wanted to, you could link the min and max parameters to sliders, or you could put the random part of the expression in sliders to caluclate freq and min and link your wiggle expression to those. Lots of options.
