Hello,

I think you just need to add “if & else” statements.

something like:

if(time < key(3).time){
	linear(time,key(1).time,key(2).time,[x – widestA – RLPadding, y],[x – widestEng – RLPadding, y])
}
else{
	linear(time,key(3).time,key(4).time,[x – widestEng – RLPadding, y],[x – widestA – RLPadding, y])
}

Hello,

You can adjust the Y position of the ball by testing the collision with the sine wave.

First, I tried to use sampleImage to test the collision, it worked but the rendering time was too long (more than 1 hour for a few seconds of video).

Finally, I tried in a different way, I calculated the distance between the ball and each points of the sine wave and if the distance was lower than the ball radius it means that the sine wave collide with the ball so I adjusted the ball Y position until collision return false.

Hello, line 1, convert the string to a number.

xx = Number(thisComp.layer('OFFSET').effect('FLIP MODE')('Menu'));
var jjj = 0
switch(xx){
case 1: jjj =0; break;
case 2: jjj =10; break;
case 3: jjj =30; break;
case 4: jjj =50; break;
case 5: jjj =90; break;
case 6: jjj =130; break;
case 7: jjj =180; break;}
jjj;

For Lockdown use this code:

function createNulls() {
    var sLayers = thisComp.selectedLayers;
    if (!sLayers.length) {
        alert('Please, select a layer');
        return false;
    }
    var sProperties = thisComp.selectedLayers[0].selectedProperties;
    if (!sProperties.length || sProperties.length < 2) {
        alert('Please, select at least 1 property');
        return false
    }
    app.beginUndoGroup('Copy to Null');
    for (var i = 0; i < sProperties.length; i++) {
        var sProperty = sProperties[i];
        if (sProperty.name.match(/Point[1-4]/)) {
            var myNull = thisComp.layers.addNull();
            myNull.name = sProperty.name;
            myNull.transform.position.expression = 'thisComp.layer("' + sLayers[0].name + '").effect("Lockdown")("' + sProperty.name + '")';
            // OPTIONAL
            // myNull.transform.position.selected = true;
            // app.executeCommand(2639); // Convert Expression to Keyframes
            // myNull.transform.position.expression = ''; // Remove the Expression
        }
    }
    app.endUndoGroup();
}
var thisComp = app.project.activeItem;
createNulls();

It should work.

function createNulls() {
    var sLayers = thisComp.selectedLayers;
    if (!sLayers.length) {
        alert('Please, select a layer');
        return false;
    }
    var sProperties = thisComp.selectedLayers[0].selectedProperties;
    if (!sProperties.length || sProperties.length < 2) {
        alert('Please, select at least 1 property');
        return false
    }
    app.beginUndoGroup('Copy to Null');
    for (var i = 0; i < sProperties.length; i++) {
        var sProperty = sProperties[i];
        if (sProperty.numProperties == 2) {
            var myNull = thisComp.layers.addNull();
            myNull.name = sProperty.name;
            myNull.transform.position.expression = 'thisComp.layer("' + sLayers[0].name + '").effect("' + sProperty.name + '")(1)';
            myNull.transform.position.selected = true;
            // OPTIONAL
		// app.executeCommand(2639); // Convert Expression to Keyframes
		// myNull.transform.position.expression = ''; // Remove the Expression
        }
    }
    app.endUndoGroup();
}
var thisComp = app.project.activeItem;
createNulls();

Hello, maybe something like this:

app.beginUndoGroup('Copy to Null');
app.executeCommand(19);
var controller = app.project.activeItem.layers.addNull();
controller.name = 'myProp';
controller.enabled = true;
controller.property('position').selected = true;
app.executeCommand(20);
app.endUndoGroup();

Hello, try this:

myNull = thisComp.layer('Null 1').effect('Checkbox Control')(1);
freeze = 0;
for (i = 1; i <= myNull.numKeys; i++) {
    if (i != myNull.numKeys && myNull.key(i) == 0 && time >= myNull.key(i).time) {
        freeze += Math.min(myNull.key(Math.min(i + 1, myNull.numKeys)).time, time) - myNull.key(i).time
    } else if (i == myNull.numKeys && myNull.key(i) == 0 && time > myNull.key(i).time) {
        freeze += time - myNull.key(i).time
    }
}
(time - freeze).toFixed(1);

OK for multiple rows, try this:

perRow = thisComp.layer('test.csv')('Data')('Outline').numProperties;
numOfRows = thisComp.layer('test.csv')('Data')('Number of Rows');
if (timeToFrames(time) < perRow * numOfRows) {
    row = Math.min(Math.floor(timeToFrames(time) / perRow), numOfRows - 1);
    col = timeToFrames(time) % perRow;
    footage('test.csv').dataValue([col, row]);
} else {
    'finished'
}

Hello, place it before and after the FOR loop.

app.beginUndoGroup("undo");
for(var i =0;i<layers.length;i++){
...	
}
app.endUndoGroup();

[Fabrice Leconte]

Hello, try this:

max = thisComp.layer('test.csv')('Data')('Outline').numProperties -1;
footage('test.csv').dataValue([Math.min(timeToFrames(time),max), 0]);
