Never mind, I solved my own question with some math.

in-point value = (in point frame number/comp frame rate)
out-point value = (outpoint frame number/comp frame rate)

Thanks again for your help on the other parts of the expression!! I’ve learned a lot!

Wow thank you!! You are a huge help!

I’m now using this expression and have parented it to the black box. The bulk of what I want is happening now. I have one last more questions.

1) How do I change the in/out to to specific frame numbers instead of 1 sec+2 sec? Here’s my expression:

var o = thisComp.layer("BLACK BOX").content("Offset Paths 1").amount;
cursor_x_motion = ease(time, 1, 2, 0, thisComp.layer("BLACK BOX").content("Rectangle 1").content("Rectangle Path 1").size[0]+o*2);

“time, 1, 2” makes my in/out at 1 sec and 2 sec.

Thanks again for your help!!

Thanks for your reply Kalleheikki. What expression would I use to find the line breaks? I’m not very familiar with this level of expression scripting. Thanks again!
