Your minPosition and maxPosition variables need to be two dimensions, like this:

minPosition = [0,0];
maxPosition = [100,100];

They could be any x and y values, they just need to be in the brackets.

It should look something like this:

value – rotation

It seems like an expression like this should do the trick:

audio = thisComp.layer(“Audio Amplitude”).effect(“Both Channels”)(“Slider”);
linear(audio,0,30,0,0.7)

You have to edit the preferences file. In [“Misc Section”]

Change:

“Drop Footage At Time Zero” = 00

To:

“Drop Footage At Time Zero” = 01

This is probably not the most efficient method, but it should work for what you’re doing:

var myCityName,myCrossHairLoc;
var cityNames = new Array(“Atlanta”,”Boston”,”New York”,”Washington”); //etc.
var crosshairLoc = new Array([100,100],[200,200],[300,300],[400,400]);
for (i = 0; i < cityNames.length; i++){ if (myCityName == cityNames[i]){ myCrossHairLoc = crossHairLoc[i]; break; } } I haven't tested this - I'm just typing off the top of my head, but it should give you the idea. Dan

Yeah, it looks like you made some changes to the expression that cause start to be undefined near the beginning of the comp. If you just want random movement in the x direction, you could try this one:

segMin = .3; //minimum segment duration
segMax = .7; //maximum segment duration
minVal = 0;
maxVal = thisComp.width;

end = 0;
j = 0;
while ( time >= end){
j += 1;
seedRandom(j,true);
start = end;
end += random(segMin,segMax);
}
endVal = random(minVal,maxVal);
seedRandom(j-1,true);
dummy=random(); //this is a throw-away value
startVal = random(minVal,maxVal);
y = position[1];
ease(time,start,end,[startVal,y],[endVal,y])

What do the error messages say?
