Expression Property Editor

 
 
 

Controls a mathematical expression that drives a parameter value.

For more information about expressions in general, see Animating with Expressions [Animation].

To apply: Use the Animation menu to set an expression on a parameter.

To display: Open the property editor that contains the parameter driven by the expression - the Expression property is available on a tab within it. To open the Expression property editor by itself, make sure that an explorer is set to show animatable parameters, then expand the parameter and click the Expression operator's icon.

Active

Target

Definition
