Use an adjustment layer with Expression Control position points
for “ from”, “to”, and an Expression Control slider assigned to “period”. Change “linear” to
“ease” for smoother interpolation.
by Michael Natkin & Brian Maffitt
from = [50, 90]; //one end of your oscillation
to = [190, 30]; //the other end of your oscillation
period = 1.5; //time between oscillation points (multiply by 2 for a round trip)
t = time % (period * 2);
if (t > period) t = 2 * period - t;
linear(t, 0, period, from, to)
