YES! That works perfectly. I have to say, I’ve been relying on your valuable advice and insight for YEARS Dan. Thanks so much as always.

Hi Dan,

I know you gave this answer a long time ago but it has been extremely helpful.

Wondering if you know any quick tips on how to make an actual transition between colors vs just immediately popping to the needed color?

Thanks.

This works perfectly!

Why do I start the expression with linear? Just curious to understand how it actually works.

Thanks!

Ahhh, duh. I guess I was thinking about it in more complex terms than that. Really appreciate you kickstarting my brain today.

Thanks so much.

March 8, 2016 at 6:51 pm in reply to: Multiple keyframe values in an alert

Hey Dan,

I got this to work but the problem now is every time the button is clicked all of the keyframes are added to the alert. They are never cleared, just constantly added. So if I end up clicking the button 12 times I’ll have 12 dupes of each keyframe variant until I close AE.

Any thoughts?

myAlert = "keyframe: " + i +" Cubic-bezier["+x1r+", "+y1r +", "+x2r+", "+y2r +"]";
newMessage += myAlert + "\r";
alert(newMessage)

Any more explanation on this? I’m still having a hard time figuring it out.

myAlert + = newMessage + “\r”; isn’t working well for some reason. It always comes back with “line whatever has no value.”

Help would be great.

Thanks!

This worked perfectly. Thanks a ton!

Ah that idea makes sense, but aren’t you just alerting the “myAlert” right away so it’s still not able to get repeated alerts?

It seems like when I tried this that what was happening or nothing happens.

Shoot I’m pretty sure it has to do with the fact that I’m looping a script to get each keyframes curve, and the keyframe is called “i” each time so it just overwrites itself.
