.mogrt Problem

Hi @Adooby-doobie,

(Great username!)

I think the issue you're running into here is that controls with keyframes can't be used as controls. Premiere Pro doesn't know which keyframe you want to apply the new value to, so it can't. But there is a way to make it work. You need to pass the values to Slider Controls and use expressions. 

• You'll need to create three slider controls on a Null layer
• Name the null Controls
• Name one Slider Control Start, the other End, and the other Animator
• On your text layer's Range Selector end property (which probably has your animation keyframes), click the stopwatch while holding alt.
• Add in the following expression:
  

   

• var x = thisComp.layer("Controls").effect("Start")("Slider");
  var y = thisComp.layer("Controls").effect("End")("Slider");
  var t = thisComp.layer("Controls").effect("Animator")("Slider");
  
  ease(t, 0, 100, x, y)

• On the Animator, add a 0 to 100 animation. Position these keyframes how fast or slow you want your animation to happen.
• In the Essential Graphics panel, delete the Range Selector 1 Start control and Range Selector 1 End control
• Add the new Start and End slider controls to the Essential Graphics panel
• For any other controls that have keyframes that you want as a control, you'll need to replicate this and make sure you name your new controls differently.
• Export your mogrt and check that it works in Premiere Pro

I created a project of the above. Let me know how you do!

Cheers,
