Controls how quickly the energy decays and returns to rest. A low damping percentage allows the object to bounce for a long time. A value near 100% stops the bouncing almost immediately, creating a heavy, cushioned halt.
Manually keyframing secondary motion can take hours. Springy FX does this in seconds, allowing for quick iterations.
is a toolset for Adobe After Effects designed to automate secondary motion—like elastic bounces, jiggles, and overlaps—without complex manual keyframing. Version 1.0 focuses on nine primary tools that react to your layer's existing position and scale animations. 1. Installation & Setup Springy FX v1.0
These deformers work on keyframed scale properties to create complex, dynamic shape changes, such as a layer bulging or twisting during a scale adjustment. 2. Parent Constraints
is an extension panel for After Effects designed exclusively to generate elastic, jiggly, and organic secondary motions. Rather than forcing users to manually code physics strings or create endless chains of null objects, Springy FX analyzes your standard scale, position, or rotation keyframes and applies dynamic deformations or delays instantly.

: By combining tools, you can create advanced setups like a dynamic rope or a dangling chain that reacts to gravity and momentum. Quick Start: Using Springy FX v1.0 To get started, follow these basic steps:
Springy FX isn't just one effect; it’s a comprehensive set of 9 tools that react dynamically to your keyframed transform properties (Position, Scale, and Rotation). Manually keyframing secondary motion can take hours
