From top to bottom, the only difference is the frequency, which is going up in 0.5s.

If you input ‘ 2’ then the value will change twice per second, and so on.īelow is an example that is affecting the x position. If you input ‘ 1’, then the value will change once per second. This is the amount of times the value changes per second. The expression may have automatically added the final bracket, but add this at the end if not )Īn example expression looks like this: wiggle(2,10)Īs mentioned previously, the first number is the frequency, but what is the frequency?

Now enter a second number, which is the amplitude of the wiggle. i could be mistaken, but i don’t think that OFX nodes would feed back control data into the harmony network, only rendered results.Whilst holding option on a mac, or ALT on a PC, click the stopwatch next to your desired propertyĮnter your first number, which is the frequency in which the wiggle occurs, followed by a comma ( ,) I’m pretty sure openFX plugins would only provide rendered, rasterized visual effects, not actually influence core transformation parameters of toonboom drawings. i’m also really wanting a “real” animatable mesh warping engine (again, like the each of the above-mentioned animation tools now provides.) especially once you realize that pretty much every other animation tool (AE, spine, creature/midas, moho, the list goes on…) has a physics engine or a “motor” method for setting up these sorts of dynamic and automatic animations.

Still, you’d think given the cost of the software and the self-professed “industry leader” status, this’d be an included feature. i’m still quite in the dark about the harmony scripting capabilities and the advanced “functions” that can be applied to drawing and layer parameters, but those may give you some clever options too (would require programming experience and research into poorly-documented, mysterious aspects of harmony, yourself). might be able to rig up some clever IK solution but harmony still doesn’t have much of a secondary/physical animation engine beyond working with deforms and IK rigging. Nope, everything has to be deliberately cycled, keyframed, repeated.
