I have set up a slider to manipulate two objects (x rotation of one and y rotation the other) and another to maniplate two parameters of one object (x rotation and y position).
The sliders work properly when used on a static frame, but when I keyframe them, things get weird. What happens is that the effect of value the slider outputs seems to decrease as the keyframes are placed farther apart. For example, say the key frames are 30 frames apart and on the second one I have rotated the object 90 degrees. If I then move that keyframe down the timeline to, say, about 150 frames, the resulting rotation is only about 30 degrees. The farther down the timeline I am, the less impact the slider's value has.
Other sliders in the scene that control only one parameter at a time are working properly. The other difference (which is likely the real culprit) is that I have expressions used in the "multi" sliders. In one the wired X_Rotation is '-value' and the Y_Position is '(value*35)-260'. The net result of what I was trying to get was "move the object this much along Y, while rotating it this much on X."
Any help is appreciated!
