Thanks a lot Dan it helped. Although my expression knowledge is not good enough to understand how exactly is the expression working. I understood the Calculus bit.

[Ranveer Singh]

Of course, It had to be this. Thanks a lot. I used a similar statement on another property and don’t know how I missed it here. Damn it.

Thanks a lot man, you saved me. I was cursing after effects thinking it is some sort of bug. hehe

Sorry, Here’s the expression. I had pasted it earlier but somehow I messed up I guess.

//variables
driver=effect(“Animation”)(“Slider”).value;
Switch=effect(“Double_Head”)(“Checkbox”).value;
Single = linear(driver,0,100,0,100);
Double = linear(driver,0,100,50,100);

//condition
Switch = 1? Double : Single

It doesn’t matter what’s the value of my end or starting point is. It always glitches at the very beginning and end. It’s more like if the position velocity is more than 0 it will Auto orient it otherwise it won’t.

I did think of it but it will not give me the smooth transition I want. Anyway, I managed to do that by extending the path and then applied trim path. Now all I had to do was animate the offset and the position at the same time.

Thaks for suggestion though

[Ranveer Singh]

create a 3d layer or a camera layer. It will pop back up

Looks Like you are using some sort of blending modes on the object in Ai which is not being converted in AE.

can you share the file so that I can check the exact problem?

[Ranveer Singh]

Goto Effects>Distort>Offset Apply it to the text you want to scroll. Animate the X value of Shift Center To.

I don’t know the permanent solution of the problem but you can hold down the Alt key while scrubbing for the preview.

Add this expression to the offset property.
Remove the keyframes from start. Set it to 0

I used this expression in After Effects 2020.

txt=text.sourceText;
t=inPoint;
linear(time,t,t+framesToTime(txt.length),-100,100);
