Rotation expression
Hi again,
I want to be able to control the rotation of several objects (to be part of a transition). I dug up this expression here at the Cow and I tried to convert to rotation, but without any luck. I’m sure you will be able to what’s wrong in an instant 🙂
I need the layer to rotate in a maximum of 180 degrees.
Thanks guys.
Best,
Kimmouse_layer = thisComp.layer(“mouse layer”);
beginRotation = 0;
endRotation = 180;
beginDistance = 200;
endDistance = 0;
dis = length(this.position, mouse_layer.position);
val = ease(dis, beginDistance, endDistance, endRotation, beginRotation);
[val, val] -

Just drop the last line: [val,val] is not necessary.
It would make it a 2-dimensional value like a position or scale.
But rotation is just a number. -
Hi Kim.
Are you using this expression on a rotation property? If so, you need to make sure it returns just one value, as opposed to two.
So replace:
[val,val]
… with just:
valJamie

Hi!
Yes, I need it on a rotation property. More specific on the Y-axis.
[Val] would suffice?
Thanks again!

So, Methinks you’re talking a 3D layer?
If so, put the expression on the Y Rotation stopwatch.
Like they suggested, just change the last line to:
val

Delete me. I’m caught in account renaming limbo.

Hi!
Depending on how complicated it needs to be, you might just need to use the pickwhip to link the Y Rotation of all successive layers to the first layer that rotates.
