    This feels like a stupid question but why can’t the Start of Ramp (coordinates) and End of Ramp (coordinates) be adjusted when making a simple ramp? They’re red and changing them immediately pops back to the locked in values of 360,240/0,0. Why even have value settings that can’t be used? If the answer is “they just can’t be changed” then what’s your recommended easy workaround?

    Thanks

    Did you apply the Ramp effect directly, or was it applied as part of an animation preset? The red text makes me think that you applied this as part of an animation preset, and these properties have some expressions on them that are defining their values.

    yep, apply the ramp effect from effects>generate>ramp and see if you have better luck…

    I didn’t see any preset set, and it specifically said None for the preset, but when I clicked on Reset the values did turn blue again. I guess, even though it said none for preset it was really there somehow. Odd. Thanks.
