AE Expression with RG Particular

[joeartist]

I am trying to add a wiggle expression to RG Particular on the Wind X parameter. however, I am not sure how to limit the wiggle expression to stay between -400 and -1000. Any thoughts?

Wiggle is never exact and applies additively to a base property value. So in your case your would have to set the value halway through the range at -700 and then experiment with the wiggle's amplitude parameter to keep it within the desired range.

Hi joeartist,

Try this:

var freq = 10; //set your wiggle frequency

var min = -1000; //minimum value

var max = -400; //maximum value

var wig = wiggle(freq,1);

linear(wig, -1,1, min, max);

Thanks for your thoughts. I tried this, however it does not seem to be working. Here is what I types in to the expression field (made some changes to the min/mx values).

var freq = 2;

var min = 0;

var max = 60;

var wig = wiggle(freq, 1);

linear(wig, -1,1, min, max);

does this seem correct?

Hi Joe

That's correct. I tried the expression you posted and still works fine.

Which property are you applying it too?

I only tested it to the RG Particular Wind X property like you mentioned.

It won't work with all properties as they might have different dimensions.

Let me know where it's not working and the what error you are getting.

Cheers
