CLAMP or LINEAR to limit scale?
by David Rodriguez on Jun 24, 2008 at 10:30:18 am

temp = thisComp.layer("UPDOWN").transform.position[1];
[temp, temp]

I am using the above expression on the scale property of an object to tie it to the vertical movement of another layer. What I need is to limit the horizontal scale of the object between 65% and 100% and the vertical scale of the object between 75% and 100%
I did some searching around and the best I can figure is that I need to use CLAMP or LINEAR. I do not know which I need and how to insert it into the existing expression. I'm a little lost here.

Any help is much appreciated.
David
