Thank you!!!

so i fixed my issue:

my .csv had HEX values with a # in front. i removed the #’s leaving only the digits, and everything worked.

I’m using a .csv in my project (not in my actual comp) and i’m attempting to use Hex code from the .csv to drive my color control expression.

compName = thisComp.name;
hexColor = footage(“players_cards – one_team.csv”).dataValue([37,compName]);
r = (hexColor >> 16)/255;
g = ((hexColor & 0x00ff00) >> 8)/255;
b = (hexColor & 0xff)/255;
hsl = rgbToHsl([r,g,b,1]);

the idea being the comp is labeled “0” and when i make duplicates, it will increment up and make new versions of the same player card, with new data from the .csv file.

this is all working wonderfully for me.

But… Can anyone explain why my text is now moving along the x axis as the numbers change? I read that using a monospaced font will help keep it in place (https://www.motionscript.com/design-guide/counter.html) but is there a work around for this?

thanks in advance!!!
