  • Text layer counting form 1 to 4000

    Hi.. all

    Do anyone know if threes a plug-in or a preset that I can use to create a counter starting in 1 and ending on 4,000 with a text layer..

    I use the character offset but it gave me random values..

    Any clue or direction are welcome…

    Thanks

    Juan Carlos

    Just did something like this for a project this week:

    – add a slider controll to your text layer
    – add 2 keys to the slider controll; 1 and 4000 spaced how you like
    – Alt-left click on your text layers “Source Text” stopwatch and add this line of code: Math.floor(effect(“Slider Control”)(“Slider”))

    Couldn’t you just use the tc generator and set it to film frames or something like that?
