Transition from Hex Color to another from CSV displayed in Text layer
Hi there! I’m trying to make a template that would make a video which would transition from one color to another. The first and second colors would be loaded from a CSV. I’ll include a link to an example of what I would want the finished product to look like:
My issue is – this concept works when entering the colors manually as keyframes. When I try to enter the colors via an expression referring to a CSV, the text layer/color does not constantly update/transition.
For reference, the expression in my Color layer referring to the CSV reads as follows:
colorText = thisComp.layer("Gradient Gram - CSV.csv")("Data")("Outline")("Left Color")("Left Color 0").toString(); hexToRgb(colorText);This is the first color, the second color in my CSV would be (“Right Color”)(“Right Color 0”). I tried unsuccessfully to keyframe to this change.
Any thoughts/ideas/help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello,
You can use a linear expression
c1 = thisComp.layer('Gradient Gram - CSV.csv')('Data')('Outline')('Left Color')('Left Color 0').toString();
// #000000
c2 = thisComp.layer('Gradient Gram - CSV.csv')('Data')('Outline')('Right Color')('Right Color 0').toString();
// #FFFFFF
linear(time,0,10,hexToRgb(c1),hexToRgb(c2));
