window only？？？ mac can't use it!!

Lloyd Alvarez · August 2012

It works on both mac and windows. Please refer to this Knowledge Base article for help on installing and running scripts: https://aescripts.com/knowledgebase/index/view/faq/how-to-install-and-run-scripts/

Navarro Parker · August 2012

All scripts are cross-platform, right?

Ahmad Zaki Hashim · September 2012

There's something wrong with the plug in. Every time I tried to use 'Bounce', a notification pops up saying 'After Effects stopped working' and it shut downs immediately. I didn't even get to save my project. I just bought the plug in today. What should i do?

Lloyd Alvarez · September 2012

Please open a support ticket: https://aescripts.com/contact and we can help you further. Please indicate what version of After Effects and operating system you are using.

hola, no puedo ver el plugin por ninguna parte, no aparece en la ventana de efectos.
lo puse en la carpeta correspondiente.

agradezco su respuesta.

Neo Soul · October 2012

Just figured it out. ( I Know I'm Late.)

To install Ease & Wizz on Mac, make sure Ease and wizz.jsx is in the ScriptUI Panels folder.

The remainder of the other scripts (script.js) are inside the easingExpressions folder.

VERY IMPORTANT: make sure the Ease and whizz.jsx (different than .js) is on the outside of easingExpressions folder. this does not go into the folder with the rest of the .js scripts.

I'm using After Effects CS5.5 on i7.

Hope that helps.

Marc Garner · October 2012

How can we add more ease functions? This includes only a handful of Robert Penner's easing equations. How would one add more?

Gary Lim · December 2012

Hi I love the plugin for this. But one small issue, it's the elastic. It didn't turn out to be as what it was on Flash. And went to see the rubberband pattern, it was merely just went beyond and back to the final value, when it suppose to be like this graph (http://thisisjust.me/download/poster-easing-fullview.png). Thanks appreciate if this could be fixed.

Thanks! Great job by the way.

Jiří Fiala · January 2013

Hi!

I like the Elastic preset, but I have one problem. I have keyframes A, B, C, D. I want to ease A+B and C+D and have the property (position) static between B and C. Elastic doesn't let me do this and creates bouncing in between.

How can I stop this? Thanks!

Update: ah, never mind. I guess this is the desired behaviour of Elastic preset. I used Quint or Back instead. Thanks.

jesper frydenlund · January 2013

I am using E&W on a HUGE project.

And since E&W is applied to almost all animating parameters, the AE file has grown to nearly 40 MB in size because of the many long expressions.

Does anyone know of a way to put the expression itself in a TXT file, and then have AE read from that?

(So instaed of having the entire expression on each parameter, I would just have "Read from myfile.txt"... )

THANKS!

Jesper

A lot of crashes using with elementary + element 3D

Kevin Schires · April 2013

A lot of crashes using with elementary + element 3D

Renato, are you on Mac? Element 3D sometimes generates lots OpenGL errors or crashes if you use expressions. There are a few threads about this on the VC forum, a work around was to disable the adaptive resolution if I remember properly.

This can also happen with Particular and other plugins, but only on Mac as far as I know.

Chase Giunta · April 2013

Hey there, I've come across an issue with Ease and Wizz where an object being reposition will jump at the beginning of the ease... E&W did this in a major project I was working on, which was harder to show, so I just replicated the problem in a test project. The test shows this being done on very small text and zoomed in, not sure if that's actually whats needed. The length of the jump seems to be based on either the amount of space moved, or the timing of the animation. You can see what I'm talking about in a video here. This is done with the Expo setting (In & Out) on the position keyframes. Please fix this! Thank you.

George Andreoni · May 2013

If I want to work with Ease and Wizz and wiggle as another expression in the same parameter where should I edit? Can you show an example. Thank you.

Lloyd Alvarez · May 2013

Sounds like you should look into iExpressions

Lars Juschka · June 2013

as much as I like ease&wizz - I still have strange behaviour when using elastic (out, all).
when converting the expression to keyframes it gets clearly visible:

is this a known issue? am I doing something wrong?

here´s how the animated layer looks like using the expression. it´s just a x-rotation from -89° to 0°.

neil timothy · July 2013

I cant seem to get the plug in to appear in the window tab

I have been at it for 2 hours now and watched 3 different videos but it doesn't seem to work. I made sure the file was on the outside of the folder. Can anyone help?

neil timothy · July 2013

If its any help when I run the script i am getting this error "unable to execute at line 83. undefined is not an object"

Lloyd Alvarez · July 2013

Make sure you are using the latest version of the script, currently v2.0.4.

I have the same issue. It's only when applying the expression on a 3D rotation.

Please open a support ticket and include your project file (just the .aep no footage) and we can look into it further

Michael Zoppo · August 2013

Heres an issue I've been having that I can't really find in any other support threads. I have a camera parented to a 3D null for position which is then parented to another 3D null that is used for rotation. I have a scene where we are looking at some text on a 3D floor (simple 3D scene) and instead of just having the camera track straight backwards to reveal more text I wanted it to truck backwards and then use the Rotation Null to rotate the whole thing 90 degrees. The best way I can explain this is to imagine that the camera is parented to the side of a door, and the door is closed. The door swings open and the camera is pinned to it so it creates a 90 degree arc. The position and Y rotation both have Expo (in and out) applied. Right as the animation is finishing and everything is easing in to an end there is a subtle hiccup/jerk/jump at the end. It's very subtle but at the same time very noticeable.

Wanted to know if there was anyway to fix this. I've tried splitting the null rotation layer (because I know it's coming from the ease and wizz on the rotation null not the position null) and deleting all the keyframes before the two I need. But everything I do i still get that little tiny jerk at the end.

Any ideas?

Lloyd Alvarez · August 2013

If your keyframes and speed graphs are not the same you are always going to have a hiccup. I would recommend trying to get them lined up. For fancy camera work you might be better using a tool designed for this purpose like the Simple Camera Rig.

Leif Falk · August 2013

@Michael Zoppo
I think there is always a little tiny jump at the end of an expo out curve. I tried with just two simple 2D position keyframes from [100,100] to [500,100] over 60 frames (f0 - f59). The following x values clearly show this:
f56: x = 499,4
f57: x = 499,5    (+0,1)
f58: x = 499,6    (+0,1)
f59: x = 500       (+0,4)
I think this is because an inverted exponential curve never really reaches zero, so the value in the end has to jump to the value set by the keyframes.

Could you explain about this a little more? I also often get this problem and have no idea how to fix it. And I'm not using the script to help animate a camera.

Those are basic animation issues outside the scope of Ease and Wizz. Here is a tutorial that goes into the details of animating using the graph editor.

Stephen Mendenhall · November 2013

Quick question:

If I send an After Effects file to another person, will they need the E&W script to honor those expressions? Or will it work without them having the script?

It will work without them having the script

Agus Tudu · April 2014

Hey!

Im having a problem executing the script in my Mac in After Effects CS6.

I`ve installed it in /ScriptsUIPanels and this error pops up

¨I can't find this file: "inOutExpo-easeandwizz-all.js"

I looked in here:/Applications/Adobe after Effects CS6/Scripts/easingExpressions"

Ive tried then, to create that folder, and the error pops up again, except this time it says

¨I can't find this file: "inOutExpo-easeandwizz-all.js"

I looked in here:/Applications/Adobe after Effects CS6/Scripts/easingExpressions/easingExpressions"

I can't make it work! It worked perfectly in a PC with the same After Effects version.

I have Maverick OS, maybe thats the issue?

Hope you can help me!

Thanks!

Hey!
Im having a problem executing the script in my Mac in After Effects CS6.

Please make sure you have read and are following the installation instructions in the PDF included with the download. Ease and Wizz works great with Mavericks.

Hello

None of the drop down boxes are working for me in after effects cs6 on mac. Any ideas where I am going wrong?

Lloyd Alvarez · April 2014

Please make sure you installed it correctly according to the installation instructions in the user guide.

Patrick Mulcahy · April 2014

Hello,

Just wondering if someone can direct me on how to adjust the magnitude of the ease and wizz "back" function.
I am looking to make the "back" a little less dramatic and I'm hoping someone can tell me what number I need to adjust in the script. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!

You would need to modify the expressions. There is no way of doing it in the UI in the current version.

I want to use the loop_out cycle on one of my animations and use Ease and Wizz but as soon as I add the plugin it disables my loop cycle. What is the work around for this?

You need to either pre-comp it or use Expression Timeline to use two expressions on the same layer.

Jesse Kerman · December 2014

Hi, I've been getting an error recently in both the Type and Keys drop-downs (see attached image). This doesn't affect the Easing drop-down.

Is this some sort of odd reaction with some other script I'm using ("foregroundColor" and "newBrush" don't seem like they necessarily belong in the Ease and Wizz code)?

Thanks in advance!

Yes it's very possible. Scripts share a common memory space so if you are running another script that was not coded properly it can definitely interfere. Can you try closing all other scripts, restarting AE and only running E&W and let us know if the problem still exists?

mike axel · December 2014

i have 4 keys for scale. 0-100-100-0. there is bad extra movement between 100-100 only with "elastic"

Ian Haigh · December 2014

Hi Mike, I think that's because the elastic easing expression attempts to ease between keyframes 2 & 3, even though they're identical values. Try setting the "Keys" popup to "Start and end" and see if that helps.

Thanks Lloyd, I was able to fix the problem, per your suggestion, by trial and error.

There were actually two scripts that were leaking into the E&W UI: Gridder (which caused the text I highlighted earlier), and then Array leaked some text into the same drop-downs after I closed Gridder.

So, hopefully Gridder and Array will be updated to fix this at some point, but in the meantime, I'll keep them both closed unless I need them.

Thanks again!
