Thank you! this works great, but I really want to add DAY at the beginning. How do I do that? what would the expression look like? i've spent days trying to figure this out. there are no tutorials to show you how to do it. Please can anyone help?
@@SabinaMotasem Same question here lol, did you happen to find the solution by any chance? Thanks 😊
This was the first expression I found that could handle HOURS, thank you.
Hi, great tutorial and thank you for the generous share of the expression. When I use this on a 10sec timeline and put a 10 second difference between keyframes, I expected the seconds to change every second but it's not happening that way, it seems to be every 15 frames.
Thanks, this was really useful!. However one question... how could I update the code/expression so that I can have a timer that is minutes, seconds and "frames". Pretty much like an old-school video timecode?
Expresión en Español:
slider = Math.round(effect("Control del deslizador")("Deslizador"));
segundos = slider%60
x = Math.floor(slider/60)
minutos = x%60
horas = Math.floor(slider/3600)
function agregarCero(n) {
if (n < 10)
return "0" + n;
else
return n;
}
agregarCero(horas) + ":" +agregarCero(minutos) + ":" + agregarCero(segundos);
amazinggggggggggggggggggggggggg
thanksssssssssssssssssssssss
how can I update this to make it days, hours, minutes instead? I guess the %60 and /60 and /3600 would change but cant really do the math, can you help?
How can I add Milliseconds to this same expression? Anybody???? been trying for hours and I cant figure it out
Try this:
slider = Math.floor(effect("Slider Control")("Slider") * 1000)
msec = slider % 1000
sec = Math.floor(slider / 1000) % 60
minute = Math.floor(slider / (1000 * 60)) % 60
hour = Math.floor(slider / (1000 * 60 * 60))
function addZero(n){ if (n < 10) return "0" + n else return n }
addZero(hour) + ":" + addZero(minute) + ":" + addZero(sec) + ":" + addZero(msec)
But always remember, that mlsec counts from 0 to 1000. This code first converts the slider to milliseconds and then calculates the number of hours, minutes, seconds, and milliseconds
@@luchiya_darkness thank you😭😭😭😭😭
What is the correct slider, keyframe & composition setup if you need the clock to start at 1hour 30minutes and then countup 7minutes and come to a stop at 1hour 37minutes? I hope somebody can give me some advice because I cannot make such a countup animation work correctly.
Very useful and helpful! I made a whatsapp mockup of a voice message, needed a countup timer. Cheers!
Is there a way of keeping the characters in place? Like having each number value remain stationary in position instead of moving left and right a bit when the other numbers change too?
It's awkward because the different numbers makes it move so if you don't align it, the timer will just move to the right slightly for more space. I guess one way would be to just give them plenty of space with spacing option or use a simple font like DS-Digital where they should stay fixed
Or just manually set the position
@@VerticDesigns how do you do that
@@kyle-js2gz manual or auto positioning?
I have a question.
Is there a way to make it count in minutes, seconds, and 24fps??
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
sorry to bother but theres any way to chanche the size of the las 2 digits, sort like eva count down
tq
Thanks a lot Vertic! One question, Do you have an idea of what to do if I have After Effect in Spanish? it seems it has some issues linking with the same functions since the effect I have use is called "Control del deslizador" in the Spanish version... I tried to change names unsuccessfully so far, it says the "Slider Control" does not exist or it might have another name, any ideas? Thanks a Lot!
rename it to Slider Control by right clicking
slider = Math.round(effect("Control del deslizador")("Deslizador"));
segundos = slider%60
x = Math.floor(slider/60)
minutos = x%60
horas = Math.floor(slider/3600)
function agregarCero(n) {
if (n < 10)
return "0" + n;
else
return n;
}
agregarCero(horas) + ":" +agregarCero(minutos) + ":" + agregarCero(segundos);
for those with errors: pay attention to the language of your after effects program, its only "Slider" in englisch
Thanks mate. Greatly appreciated for this tutorial. However, there seems to be some sort of an error as it reads. - Sec = Slider Error message. Please help!
Thanks man
Thanks
No problem
Dear Vertic. I do not see the expression. Kind regards Anton
After reviewing the expression in After Effects, it appears that the slider value is being rounded to calculate the time. The phenomenon where it displays 1 when it's only been 1 second might be influenced by the behavior of the Math.round function.
The Math.round function rounds a given number to the nearest integer. For instance, Math.round(0.5) results in 1. Due to this behavior, when the slider value is at 0.5 seconds, it might be rounded up to 1 second, causing the display to advance by 1 second prematurely.
To address this issue more appropriately, it might be beneficial to consider methods that either avoid rounding and retrieve the value as its integer part or use truncation to obtain the time.
slider = Math.floor(effect("Slider Control")("Slider"))
sec = slider % 60
x = Math.floor(slider / 60)
min = x % 60
hour = Math.floor(slider / 3600)
function addZero(n){ if (n < 10) return "0" + n else return n }
addZero(hour) + ":" + addZero(min) + ":" + addZero(sec)
Got an error with something about "Else" but fixed it with proper places curly brackets!
slider = Math.floor(effect("Slider Control")("Slider"))
sec = slider % 60
x = Math.floor(slider / 60)
min = x % 60
hour = Math.floor(slider / 3600)
function addZero(n) {if (n < 10) {return "0" + n}
else {return n}};
addZero(hour) + ":" + addZero(min) + ":" + addZero(sec)
@@marthjel Thank you so much for pointing that out and providing the solution! I really appreciate your help in fixing the issue with the rounding in the slider value. Your explanation and the corrected code were very clear and helpful. Thanks again for your support!
Getting an error on line 1. Error: invalid numerical result (divide by zero?)
Did you switch the expression engine?
Try this:
slider = effect("Slider Control")("Slider");
sec = Math.floor(slider%60);
x = Math.floor(slider/60);
min = x%60;
hour = Math.floor(slider/3600);
function addZero(n) {
return (n < 10) ? "0" + n : n;
}
addZero(hour) + ":" + addZero(min) + ":" + addZero(sec)
Thx for the suggestions - still have the error divide by zero ... @@nao745ksuha
I can't see the Expression for this tutorial?
Still gives me the error message about divide by 0 when changing to legacy. No luck here...anyone else?
It was because I was OPTION Clicking the SLIDER stopwatch and not the TEXT SOURCE stopwatch. Hope this helps someone else
@@collins_channel8643 This just helped me...thanks mate!

what are these alt and home things. say its for pc in the title
bro where is the expression?
Here you go I can't add it in the description
