@@federicosilvero3341 assuming that you understand how to use the program doesn’t mean it isn’t quick and easy. Rather than teach the foundation of every action over and over in each tutorial, we decided to cater to people who don’t need that information. If you need to learn After Effects itself, you shouldn’t be looking at a tutorial to learn how to make pie charts. You should be watching tutorials on the program itself. This is for the person who is working in the industry and needs to know a better way to do this more efficiently so they can save time and money.

Hi, always feel free to ask questions if you have an issue! These tutorials are specifically built assuming an advanced level of knowledge so that we can be quick and straight to the point. I started Workbench because there are a lot of tutorials out there for the beginner to intermediate segment, but there's not much at all out there for advanced AE users. I watch a lot of tutorials where I'm looking for that little nugget of an idea I can build on. But I get tired of tutorials that have more intro than tutorial, or teach me the basics in each tutorial like how to make a new comp. So I decided to aim for the users, like me, who have been using AE for years and want to see something in a new light. Lately though, I have been trying to give things a little more time to breathe and sink in. I do think a lot of these earlier tutorials are quick. I cut out a lot of useful pauses in order to speed them up. So that has changed a lot since this one. But again, I'm always willing to answer questions! Thanks!

You're welcome! And thanks for understanding! Like I said, these are geared towards advanced users, but if I can, I don't mind helping beginners out to figure things out. To answer your question, with the layer selected in the timeline, change the stroke color at the top of the screen (to the right of the tools). Click on the color, not the word stroke, those go to different menus. If you get a two tone chart, you probably have fill on. Turn it off by clicking on Fill and selecting the white box with a red line through it.

First, I pickwhipped the x size of the ellipse. And since that left the expression box open, I typed /2 to divide it by two. That way the stroke width is always half of the size of the circle. I hope that helps. If not, feel free to clarify! (Great name btw)

how the fuck did you divide by two at 01:55 ????
@Workbenchtv
2 жыл бұрын
Thank you for including timecode! You opt/alt click on the stopwatch for Stroke Width to add an expression. Then you drag the pickwhip (the spiral symbol) to the x component of Size (note that a box goes around just the x component). Then AE will fill in text to link the x size in the expression, so at the end you just put "/2" which divides the value by two.

All you do is link the stroke width to be half of the ellipse's width. Then you add an offset paths, setting the amount to be negative half of the stroke width. Then you just use trim paths. You're just making a stroke the size of the radius of the circle, and then moving the center of it so that the edge of the stroke starts from the center.

There's something you're mistaking here. Pickwhip isn't parenting. When you pickwhip, it just writes the code to reference the value in the expression, so you can still add more code to it. So pickwhip the value and type /2 to divide by two.

how do you move the stroke to the center point?
@Workbenchtv
7 жыл бұрын
Hi! I explained at 1:37, but basically you either make the stroke width equal to the diameter of the circle (which is easy but makes the stroke pass the original edges of your circle), or you can go through the process I did where you link stroke width to the size of the circle and divide it by two with an expression, and then link offset paths to the stroke width and divide that by two.

I’m not sure what you mean as circles don’t have a center point. The idea is that you make a stroked circle with no fill. Then you thicken the stroke and bring it back to the center with an offset paths so it looks like a filled circle even though it’s just stroked. Did you add the offset paths?
