Write Text from Character X to Character Y
I’m fairly sure there’s a pretty simple expression for this, but I can’t remember it and hopefully someone can jog my memory. I’m looking for an expression that only writes part of a string of text, from character X to character Y.
Example: If I have a text layer with the source text “Expression”, but I only want it to write starting at the 3rd character and ending at the 9th, so it would come out “pressi”.
Anyone have an idea of how this is done?replied 8 years, 1 month ago 2 Members · 1 Reply

Either of these should work:
value.substr(2,6) // first character, how many
value.substring(2,8) // first character, last character
