How to wiggle a layer on odd frame numbers.

Hello. I am using AE CS6. Now I am trying to make an cartoon animation, and now I am trying to wiggle some layers' position.
But I don't want to wiggle the layers on every frame. I want to wiggle them only on odd frame numbers.
I mean, I want to wiggle them on frame 1,3,5,7,,,,, but don't want to wiggle on frame 0,2,4,6,,,,, .
I am not familiar with expressions, but is it possible to make such a expression? I don't know what to write in "If" clause of wiggle expression.
Please give me your advice. Thank you in advance.

Thank you, but it wiggles my layers on even frame numbers.
I need to wiggle them on odd numbers by wiggle expression, because they have keyframes on even frames.
My animation is moving on even frame numbers via position keyframes I set manually, so I want to wiggle them on odd frame numbers using expression.
Anyway, I managed to make an expression using Mylenium's expression.
XXX = Math.floor((timeToFrames(time)+1)%2);
if(XXX < 1 )
wiggle(10,50);
else
value;
It wiggles my layer on odd numbers.
Thank you for your imfomation.

How can I Copy/paste the pixels within a frame in a video layer to another frame? (It duplicates the whole frame instead.)

I'm making a handdrawn animation in the timeline using video layers, so each video layer contains the frames for the animation. The method works great..except for this -
If lasso select a section of one frame and try to paste into another frame, it duplicates the the whole frame and pastes it with an arbitrary long frame duration for some reason (not the same duration as the frame its copied from)....not at all what I'm trying to do. Any work around? I've tried all the variations of 'paste special' to no avail.
Thanks.

Images and other object can either be floating or be inline. Yours are floating and will not move with the text. Inline object will move with the text but can't be outside the text layer. It doesn't help if you have created section in the document. Floating images doesn't care. Nor will it help if you create several documents that you want to merge later. Doesn't make any difference.
My suggestion is that until your text is finished you have the images inline. Then as a last editing you can start make the images floating and move them a little.

How do I select more than one frame? (editing a movie in PS)

Fisrt time ive tried this.
I want to do a quick selecton on a movie clip but can only seem to select 1 fram at a time. How can I select more than one frame?
cheers

If you used Sequence to Layers, Shift and Control key in the layers palette work just as they would when selecting files in Explorer... If it's a video layer, then you should only see one layer and will have to use the Timeline to navigate.

How to get the footage's current frame number in expression?

There are 2 layers.One is text layer,one is sequence layer.
Footage has begun from the 20th frame.
Therefore, the number of composition's current frame number and footage's frame number has shifted.
I want to show footage's frame number in text layer . not composition's frame number.

>Footage has begun from the 20th frame.
Do you mean that the footage layer has been trimmed (so that the start of the footage lines up with the start of the comp, but the first 19 frames are not visible), or moved to the left (so that frame 20 lines up with the comp's frame 0), or that the sequence actually begins with the 20th frame (at frame 0 of the comp), or something else?
Are the frame rates of the comp and the footage the same?

Odd frame issue

Hi,
I have recently got PE10 and am gradually getting to grips with it. One thing I have noticed a couple of times is when I put several video clips together and work on them with effects or dissolves etc. Sometimes I get a single frame at the end of the last clip which actually comes from the first clip! I do know that you can move one clip over another so you get one clip running into another and them it continues with the first clip. But in this case once this extra frame appears I cannot actually remove it. I am sure it is a normal behaviour of the software but have not grasped what I am doing that causes it. Any ideas?
cheers

The "odd Frames," appear, because of a lack of Handles on the Clips, when Transitions are used. This ARTICLE goes into more detail, and explains how to add Handles, by resetting the In and/or Out Points of the Clip.
Good luck,

How to capture show layer and hide layer event in photoshop through a plugin???

How to capture show layer and hide layer event in photoshop through a plugin???for mac

Use the Listener plug-in found in the SDK to see how you can monitor the show/hide layer event. You can also use the Getter plug-in to show what information you can find out about the current state of Photoshop.

How to get the values from repeated frame?.

Hi
how to get the values from repeated frame?. i have to disply the first 3 digits in another place in my report.
i have field empno in repeated frame and i want to disply first 3 digits in another place in the same report.
thanks

How often do you need to display it? It sounds like you might want to base a summary on that formula with a function of first or last. If it's a per page basis, it can be a page level summary. If it's at a higher level repeating frame, then you can create the summary at that level. I'd suggest taking a look at the online help for summaries using the first/last functions.
Hope that helps,
Toby

How do I go directly from one frame to another particular frame which is far away in the time line? (e.g the two frames are separated by 100 frames)

How do I go directly from one frame to another particular frame which is far away in the time line? (e.g the two frames are separated by 100 frames). I mean, is it possible to take the playhead from one frame to another frame directly which is 100 frames away in the time line? Thanks for any reply.

In the Timeline, go to the first frame and press M to put a marker on it. Go to the other frame you want to jump to and put a marker on that one too.
Now press Ctrl+Semicolon to go to the previous marker - or Ctrl+Comma to go to the next marker.

How to determine the accuracy of the frame rate using a Basler sca640-70gm?

To whom it may concern
I am guessing that the time between each frame varies from a nominal set frame rate.
How do I set that nominal frame rate?
How do I determine what the actual (frame by frame) frame rate or time between frames was in post pressing of the "video" image.
Thank you,
Todd
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It is almost impossible to measure the frame rate accurately by measuring the time between consecutive frames. The latency of sending the images over the ethernet means they won't arrive at the computer with the same exact spacing they were taken at. Also, measuring the length of one short interval in LabVIEW is also very difficult. Windows latencies and other issues could make your measurement be off by quite a bit.
The only way I can see to verify the frame rate is to use a digital input into a counter and wire the shutter signal directly from the camera into the digital input. You could program the counter to measure between the rising edges of the shutter signal, and you would find out the frame rate is indeed very accurate and repeatable.
The only other way I know to accurately measure the frame rate in LabVIEW is to measure the time over a large number of frames (thousands) and divide the number of frames by the total time. Any minor errors in measuring the timing of a single frame go away with the large number of frames.

How to add HTTP Header Response X-Frame-Options:SAMEORIGIN from OWA published via Forefront TMG 2010 to stop Clickjacking

How to add HTTP Header Response X-Frame-Options:SAMEORIGIN from OWA published via Forefront TMG 2010 to stop Clickjacking. I have put the IIS setting X-Frame-Options:SAMEORIGIN on my Internal CAS Server. However as the OWA page is published through
Forefront TMG 2010, the iFrame tag is not blocked when the page is first opened. Only when you login with your credentials to the OWA page inside the frame and the page reaches IIS on the Internal CAS it gets blocked. I want to block it in the first
instance when it is opened from TMG.

How to set a layer invisible?

Hi guys,
Can you tell me how to set a layer invisible? Thanks.

How to import multiple files to the frame area?

How do I import multiple files to create animated GIF's. I
know how to import multiple files into the Fireworks, but if I'm
trying to create an animated gif that has alot of files, How do I
get them into the frames area. It is really a pain importing each
and every file one at a time frame by frame

merry1
after you bring in all your images to the canvas, select all
and in the
Frames Options drop down, select Distribute to Frames.
You can bring multiple images onto the canvas by copy and
pasting from
the folder(s) where they exist.

How do you get Premiere Pro CS4 frames into Photoshop

Hi I am trying to modify a series of Premiere Pro Frames by coloring a small section of them in Photoshop 7. How do I pull those frames out of my timeline, get them into Photoshop, and then back into my timeline? I remember doing it with Premiere 6.5, but I can't figure out how to do it with CS4.

Thanks guys, I'll take it from there.

Yes, PS-Extended will make things a bit easier. While not perfect, it simplifies rotoscoping quite a bit.

Using Flach CS4 and action script 2.0 how do I advance to a specific frame of the main timeline when a movie clip instance come to the end of its timeline?

Using Flach CS4 and action script 2.0 how do I advance to a specific frame of the main timeline when a movie clip instance come to the end of its timeline?

code on the last frame of your movieclip instance:
_root.gotoAndStop('whatever_frame'); // will work unless this swf is loaded into another swf. in that situation, you should use a relative path to the main timeline (eg, _parent or _parent._parent etc).
