Wiggle Temporal Phase

[Grayson Humphries]

Is there a way to access the temporal or spatial phase of a wiggle expression that can be controlled by a slider or integer? It's available on a shape layer, however the wiggle affects the points of the shape instead of its comp transform. Thanks in advance.

If you tie the 5th parameter (time) of wiggle to a slider, then the slider contols where you are, time-wise, traversing the wiggle path. For this example:

wiggle(1,100,1,.5,effect("Slider Control")("Slider"))

the wiggle doesn't animate unless you animate the slider.
