  • Time Remapped Layer Slider Control Expression

    Posted by Nimrod Zin on February 17, 2021 at 12:44 pm

    Hi…

    I have this expression on a layers opacity property. The Layer is time remapped so I could loop it in the original comp. When the Slider control is keyframes the expression doesn’t work.

    I get no Warning ⚠️ it just doesn’t do anything.

    I assume it has something to do with the fact it’s either time remapped or keyframes or both.

    Did anyone encounter this problem and found a solution? Maybe some kind of a value at time that I can’t figure out how to phrase?

    effectName=thisLayer.name;

    comp(“1”).layer(“1”).effect(effectName)(“Slider”)

    Thanks ?

    ok… figured it out.

    effectName=thisLayer.name;

    comp(“1”).layer(“1”).effect(effectName)(“Slider”).valueAtTime(time+PRECOMP_TIME_AT_COMP(“1”)
