2:35:09 - To draw a sine wave, it might be a better approach to first create a shape layer using the Pen tool. Then, you can write the following expression in the properties under content > shape > path > path. var positions = []; var amplitude = 200; var numPoints = 250; var xSpacing = 20; for (var i = 0; i < numPoints; i++) { var xCoord = i * xSpacing; var yCoord = Math.sin(i / (amplitude / xSpacing)) * amplitude; positions.push([xCoord, yCoord]); } createPath(positions, [], [], false);

How are you guys writing and explain this complex coding are you humans?

@karutt8088 5 ай бұрын

Indeed, the equation for a sine curve appears and is used extensively in physics, mathematics, and many other areas. If you're interested, you can familiarize yourself with this type of coding through visual design coding using tools like p5.js. And yes, I am much more human than you might think👾

@hamidrana085 26 күн бұрын

Really nice codes. I changed the length by assigning "time" to xSpacing and multiplied yCoord by -1. And then I applied the same loop for X Position of the layer, only added "value" and multiplied by -1 again. Here's the Path expression: var positions = []; var amplitude = 250; var numPoints = 250; var xSpacing = time; for (var i = 0; i < numPoints; i++) { var xCoord = i * xSpacing; var yCoord = Math.sin(i / (amplitude / xSpacing)) * amplitude * -1; positions.push([xCoord, yCoord]); } createPath(positions, [], [], false); And here's the X Position expression: var numPoints = 250; var xSpacing = time; for (var i = 0; i < numPoints; i++) { var xCoord = i * xSpacing; } value + xCoord * -1;

For a beginner, learning the coding is difficult, how is the user suppose to know what coding they should use and when to apply it to the right key frame? Their are many codes the user would have to memorize, including understand the functionality behind it.

@amcsoftware 9 ай бұрын

the secrete is that you do not have to memorize anything, try to make the code self explanatory for you, add comments, name variables with meaning and then forget it.

Hi, When doing 48:28 "Custom expression controls" my syntax is correct but AE throws the error "property or method named [object Property] in Class 'Array' is missing or does not exist." It's the code to do with toggling on/off the drop shadow opacity (between values 80 and 0). How do I fixt this? Thanks.

@wolfx23 2 жыл бұрын

came across the same problem you did. What I understand is that the "0" or "1" returned from the checkbox is not the same as a number 0 or 1. Maybe the line has to be converted somehow. My work around was to just literally put a 0 inside the index instead of referencing the variable returning the 0 or 1 from the checkbox. It's just weird because if you did something like if (checkbox == 0). It does check it correctly.. So if statements can be another work around. Might be something the old after effects versions were able to do and maybe an update made the syntax different.
