It’s working perfectly.

Thank you Dan for taking the time to solve this idea.

It’s great to have people ready to help.

Yes, it wasn’t clear… we would need a third marker named “F” for Fade, with 100 opacity, where it starts to fade until the “H” marker.

So the marker’s sequence would be:

S = 100 opacity

F = 100 opacity, and it starts to fade until the “H” marker

H = 0 opacity, until 1 frame before S

S = Goes back to 100 opacity

F

H

…

The sequence would be S F H that…

Hello,

I d’like to vary the opacity of one layer based on a sequence of 2 markers.

One marker is named “S” for Show, and the other is “H” for Hide.

Id’like the opacity to go from 100, at the S marker, to 0 at the H marker with a linear fade,

and go from 0, one frame before the S marker, to 100 at the S marker.

I attached an example of the opacity…

Thank you Dan it works!

Thank you for your quick response Graham,

It shows an error: Syntax error: Unexpected token ‘<‘

Hello!

Id’like to show a particular element in a composition when one of the layer’s name contains a specific name.

The following code is doing the job, but can you show me a way to shorten and simplify it please?

In the composition when the number of existing layers is lower than the number of “CnameX” defined in the code, it shows this error:…

Excellent Dan !

It works like a charm!

Thank you very much!

Hello,

I would like to trigger an animation multiple times for 3 layers with 3 markers.

The main animation is on the Layer “LEAD ANIMATION” and lasts 1 second.

I have 3 layers which are named A, B and C. I want to animate their opacity multiple times with the “LEAD ANIMATION” model.

And on the layer “MARKER”, there are the three markers A, B and C…

Thank you very much Dan, it works great!!!!

Hello,

I have a 2 layers T1 and T2, each one contains an animation triggered by its marker on the MARKER layer.

The following expression make the animation of each layer starts when the corresponding marker is reached. It is in the time remapping expression of each layer:

markerName =…

Hello,

I have an expression which allows to control audio levels transitions triggered by markers with values in the comments.

It is working but when the playhead is before the first marker, it show an error.

Can you help me to adapt the expression so that the error doesn’t show?

n=0;

m=thisLayer.marker;

//fadeTime = framesToTime(fadeFrames);

I tried and the transition stay the same.

Maybe with some negative value with the posterize function.

Thanks

Thank you Filip, it works great.

Is there a way to start the transition before and end the transition after each marker, so that the marker is half way of each transition?

I tried to modify the code but it didn’t turn as wished.

Hello,

Can you help me to build an expression where one layer shows up each time the playhead reaches its marker’s name and fades out when the playhead reaches the next marker with an 1s ease transition between each layer? The fade in and the fade out of 2 consecutive layers would occur simultaneously. You can see in the example, the layers can a…

Thank you Walter, it’s working now!

I started to search in PREFERENCES … and re-read your message and found it in PROJECT SETTINGS.

Hi,

I try to apply text style to a text layer with this expression:

text.sourceText.style.setFontSize(100).setText("My text");

It should work well, but this message pops up.

“Property or method named ‘style’ in Class’TextProperty’ is missing or does not exist”

Have you got any idea how I can fix it?

Thank you Filip, it works perfectly!

Hi,

I d’like to zoom a video multiples times during the duration of markers along the timeline.

One zoom at 120% and another 140%.

When the markers are over the scale goes back to 100%

It is not necessary to use linear or ease transition.

Here is an example.

Thank you for your help.

Thank you very muck Filip, it’s working well.

Only just one final touch.

Is it possible to program the transition to occur before the marker, starting at the marker time – the transitionTime and ending at the marker time?

I tried to modify the last line like this but it didn’t work

linear(time, curMarker.time-transitionTime, curMarker.time,…

Hi everybody!

I am new to this programing world, but it’s very interesting and satisfying (when it works) to program animations!

So thank you for helping new geeks like me 😉

I’ve tryed to pick some bits of expressions here and there to cook an appropriate one, but it’s a kind of complicated to figure it out for now.

I want to change… Read more
