Thanks Dan! I am away from that computer now but I will try it Monday, I will let you know if it works.

Question to help me possibly understand:

You have “t” being multiply by both the “veloc” and “decay”, but mine only had the “startT” being multiplied by “veloc” is that the problem?

I am trying to understand because I did not come up with the expression, I borrowed it from https://www.macprovideo.com/hub/after-effects/create-swinging-banner-in-after-effects. He used exactly what I had and it seemed to work for him. I am just trying to better understand how to control when an expression starts.

Thanks again for your time.

I am sorry but I tried this trick of using Control but no luck. Can you give more detail please. I am on a Mac (which I assume author of the question was on as well).

Thanks for your help!

thanks for your response and you were right. after your comment i explored what format after effects was rendering out the file in, and noticed it was using “animation” i changed it to apple pro res, to match my video files and then my machine had no problem (makes sense since apple pro res is a compressed format). i knew there had to be post on the topic and thanks for giving me the kick in the right direction to find them.
