The wiggler in After Effects does not appear to be working. I apply it, the keyframes show but no movement is applied. Any ideas anyone?

    The Wiggler works when you have at least 2 keyframes associated to some properties (not all properties work with the Wiggler)

    I know that I am using The Wiggler correctly. I have used it many times before successfully. Presently it is working intermittently so there is obviously an issue with it on my system for some reason.

    Could you describe the steps you follow for getting it work?

    You have to be much more specific about where you apply the expression, what version of AE you use, system info, preview settings and whatnot.

    AE CC 2018  Mac OS Sierra version 10.12.6   It's the 'Wiggler" expression that is in the presets down the right hand side (just above 'mask interpolation'. I'm trying to apply it to an ai layer. I just opened up a new project, tried it, and it worked! but now when I tried it again, it isn't working again
