THanks for informing DAN.

Below is a script that I took from one of your answers online, I want modify this when the counter goes 0, the keyframe should play. is it possible. Can you show how to achieve this

var clockTime // this is my counter value, script not shown here for simplicity.
// So when this var goes 0, I need the valueAtTime to play.

L= thisComp.layer("EDIT");
n = 0;
if (L.marker.numKeys > 0){
n = L.marker.nearestKey(time).index;
if (L.marker.key(n).time > time){
n--;
}

}if (n == 0){
valueAtTime(0);
}else{
t = time - L.marker.key(n).time;
valueAtTime(t)
}

Ignore this please I got it working. Was using a composition marker, didn’t realize we need to use a layer marker. Thanks for your help. This is what I needed

I Tried to do a test with what you mentioned valueAtTime. I did a null object and put a marker on it. Created three solid layers and did key frames for it. Used the below expression in the opacity property of each layer. Now when I play nothing happens to the solid layers. The just keep the opacity level of 100. I created a key frame of 100 at 0sec (timeline) and 0 and 10sec (timeline). If I move the marker away or even on the keyframe nothing happens. What do you think i’m doing wrong here.

L= thisComp.layer("EDIT");
n = 0;
if (L.marker.numKeys > 0){
n = L.marker.nearestKey(time).index;
if (L.marker.key(n).time > time){
n--;
}
}if (n == 0){
valueAtTime(0);
}else{
t = time - L.marker.key(n).time;
valueAtTime(t)
}

Thanks Kalleheikki, for the prompt response. Is it possible to show an expression example for the same.
