Byron,

That should work. What kind of error message are you getting?

Dan

Dan Ebberts

Try this (not tested):

for (i = 1; i < lines.length; i++) {
     table[i-1] = lines[i].split(",");
}

Dan

Dan Ebberts

Try changing the sampling line to this:

s = L.sampleImage([i,L.width/2],[.5,L.width/2],false,time);

That should make it sample before any effects are applied to the layer.

Dan

Dan Ebberts

Hard to say without seeing it. The expression is looking for the right-most pixel that has a non-zero alpha, so anything that could affect that (motion blur?) would be suspect.

Dan

Dan Ebberts

Ah, OK. This should fix it:

Code: Select all

L = parent;
for ( i = L.width; i >= 0; i--){
  s = L.sampleImage([i,L.width/2],[.5,L.width/2],true,time);
  if (s[3] > 0) break;
}

[i + 10 - L.toWorld(L.anchorPoint)[0],value[1]]

Dan

Dan Ebberts

It works fine for me. Are both your text layers left-justified?

Dan

Dan Ebberts

Unfortunately, you can't directly get the bounds of a text layer with an expression. You can use sampleImage() to find the edges though. Assusming your text layers are left-justified, something like this should be close: L = parent; for ( i = L.width; i >= 0; i--){ s = L.sampleImage([i,L.width/2],[....

Possibly your layer's In Point is not at time = 0;

Try it this way:

veloc = 7;
amplitude = 80;
decay = .7;
t = time-inPoint;
amplitude*Math.sin(veloc*t)/Math.exp(decay*t)

>when theire is a movement my layer dont even move with the my setup

The expression linking the non-rotating layer to the null's position should look like this:

Code: Select all

L = thisComp.layer("Null 1");
L.toWorld(L.anchorPoint)

Dan

Dan Ebberts

I'm sure there's a way to do it with 3D rotation matrices, but it's probably messy. Do you really need it to be parented to the other layer? How about if you had a position expression that always keeps the layer at the same relative position. Even easier, possibly, would be to parent a null to the r...

Dan Ebberts

OK, like this then (substitute in the name of the image layer) var myLayer = myComp.layer("name of your image layer goes here"); var myEffect = myLayer.property("Effects").addProperty("ADBE Fast Blur"); myEffect.property("ADBE Fast Blur-0001").setValue(17); Dan

Dan Ebberts

Try changing "myLayer" to "mySolid"

Dan

Dan Ebberts

This should work: var myEffect = myLayer.property("Effects").addProperty("Fast Blur"); myEffect.property("Blurriness").setValue(17); If you're using a foreign language version of AE, you may need to use the match names like this: var myEffect = myLayer.property("Ef...

Dan Ebberts

You have a lot of work left to do. You need to import your images (see ImportOptions() and importFile() in the scripting guide). You need to add each image to the comp and then add the effect. You need to add your comp to the render queue (app.project.renderQueue.items.add(comp). You may also need t...

Dan Ebberts

My guess is that your comp may not be the first item (item(1)) in the project bin. If you make sure the comp is selected you could use activeItem instead, like this: var myComp = app.project.activeItem; myComp.layer("spot1.jpg")("Effects")("Fast Blur")("Blurriness&...
