Thank you so much! That worked perfectly and will now be using this very powerful function so much more in my work.

Hmm its not quite achieving the look I’m going for because doing it this way looks pretty messy until either layer is fully at 100% opacity. The numbers look jumbled. Could there be some kind of time delay expression or would there possibly be a different way of counting up in increments that would allow me to have control over the smoothness of how the text is appearing?

Thank you so much Dan for writing so clearly. I was recently tasked to create an incremental countdown (actually mine counted up) and your answers on this old forum was a lifesaver. However I would also like to add a little bit of smoothness to how the numbers change from one to another. The default of course is that the numbers disappear and appear without any fading.

Is there an expression that I can add that makes the numbers fade out and fade in similiar to the the “smoothness” parameter in the “range selector” modifier of text layers?
