Hello guys, im trying to make eye blinking transition on after effect using linear wipe but i have a little problem. I chosed 45% transition completation and the wipe angle is the problem. I want to make a transition from up to down but i dont know why the program lets me only from left to right or right to left do you have any idea? Im sorry for my bad english.

There are some screens: Left to right : http://prntscr.com/hgwnwe http://prntscr.com/hgwnwe

First, it's a lot easier just to PrintScreen and paste your screenshots directly to the forum and it makes them easier for us to see. You can also drag images from a folder or the desktop.

Second, to diagnose problems you should select the layer or layers giving you problems in the timeline and press the U key twice to see all of the modified properties. Then you should start soloing layers to figure out where the problems are.

From what I can see you have a layer with the same name just above the layer with the wipe effect applied. You also have a paint effect and a mask. Without seeing the modified properties of the layer you are working I can only guess that the angle of the transition is the problem. In two of the screenshots the angle is near 90º and the other screenshot shows the angle near 270º so your wipe is going to be pretty near vertical in both cases. Try soloing the layer and adjusting the angle.

You should also spend a little time with the help files when you run into problems just type Linear Wipe in the Search Help field at the top right corner of AE to see how it works.
