How do I apply ping-pong to a certain area on a layer

alicecool199 · Post by **alicecool199** » 24 Mar 2014, 08:19

When on the same layer, there are two parts, and I would only want to apply the Ping-Pong effect to the first part, for example, from frame 1 to frame 30, but not the frame after that. How do I do it?
I know it would work if I just apply it to the entire layer by making the last frame "Ping-Pong", but that's not what I want.
I have attached a pic.

Does anyone know how to solve this ?

There is a function called "Faux-Fixe" what is exactly doing that. Search in the forum or read the manual about it.

In addition to using Faux-Fixe, you stop the Ping-Ponging at a certain point by placing a new frame where you want the effect to stop. The new frame might be the first frame of your ping pong or anything else.

ok I finally got it. Have to set the faux fixe value in order to make it work

Wait. Actually I am still a bit confused about few things.
When I set a repeat, for example, it does work but the playback keeps flashing. However, when I view it by scrolling the timeline, this won't happen.
What is happening here?

My first guess is that you have the Faux Fixe value set incorrectly. Try to change it to onr number shorter or something like that.

It might be incorrect.I am still confused about this function. Is there any guide explaining faux fixe?
