Linear expression is not working

Hello,

 

If my understanding about linear expression is correct then I dnt understand what is happening.

 

My text layer (Digit layer 9,2) is moving too slow but bar is progressing at a much higher speed. I am very sad, I cant figure out what is am doing wrong. Why the text layer  is not moving as fast as the bar progresses.

😥😥

If you change the linear() expression to this, does it do what you want?

linear(c, 0, 9.2, 161,199);

One thing we're not seeing is what's actually going on with Shape Layer 1's Trim Paths End property. At the end of your animation, the calcualted X Position is 123.8 which, interetingly, if you run the linear calulation backwards, corresponds to an End property value ot 9.2%. I think we need more info. Can you maybe post the project file?
