Yes, another countdown question…
I’m an absolute beginner when it comes to expression usage (read: I know nothing about expressions). What I need to do is count down from 10 million to 2,976,302 (for instance) within a set time period. It’s okay if the countdown begins at the start of the text layer, but I need it to finish in a finite period of time (let’s say 2 seconds @ 23.98 = 48 frames). Can anyone help? Thanks in advance!

If you need commas, this should work:
beginCount = 10000000;
endCount = 2976302;
dur = 2;t = time – inPoint;
s = “” + Math.round(linear (t, 0, dur, beginCount, endCount));outStr = s.substr(-s.length, (s.length-1)%3 +1);
for (i = Math.floor((s.length-1)/3); i > 0; i–){
outStr += “,” + s.substr(-i*3,3);
}
outStrIf not, just use the first part:
beginCount = 10000000;
endCount = 2976302;
dur = 2;t = time – inPoint;
s = “” + Math.round(linear (t, 0, dur, beginCount, endCount));Dan
