Thank you for the quick reply. I could be that I was a bit impatient for the instances to start…

Cheers!

Hi!

Try applying this little expression to the position-parameter:

d=0.5;// This is the offset-time in seconds
thisComp.layer(2).position.valueAtTime(time-d)

And this to the opacity:

d=2;// This is the offset-time in seconds
thisComp.layer(2).opacity.valueAtTime(time-d)

These expressions assume that you have at least two layers in your comp. The “master” layer is the second layer (#2). This is the one you keyframe. If you need to change the reference just edit the “2” in “thisComp.layer(2)….” to the index of your choice.

Hope this helps!

Good luck!

Cheers!

Hi!

I would guess it is the Quicktime codec you’re rendering to that causes the problem. If you output to the “uncompressed”- or “animation”-codecs they will be pretty heavy for your computer to play back smoothly (you’ll need fast harddrives to play them). Try rendering to a DV-codec and see if that helps. If it does, then you at least know what causes the problem…

Good luck!

Man, you guys are fast AND smart!

It’s late at night here in Norway, so my brain isn’t quite in javascript mode at the moment, but I will check it out tomorrow. It sure looks like what I was looking for.

Thanks a lot!

Cheers!

Hold down the shift key while selecting “Edit”->”Preferences”. The “Secret”-option should appear at the bottom of the drop-down list.

Good luck!
