How do I change layout background color smoothly ?

I am looking for color transition like this :

Is it posible to make this w/o installing new plugin ?

Thank you!

You can use the set layer background color action and change the r,g,b values over time.

ramones Thanks for the answer but how do I make the change smoothly, should I create 3 variable R G B and use lerp to change ?

If only C2 had decent HSV() function that produces a usable color from Hue/Saturation/Value this would be a piece of cake, but for some reason these crucial functions almost never get implemented. For CC I ended up making my own plugin that does this.

For decent color transitions HSV (or HSL or HSB) is crucial - one way to achieve this is adding a HSL effect to your background layer and adjusting the values there (like lerping from one hue to another). Not sure about the performance hit, but it shouldn't be too bad.

Somebody Thanks man.

Hey there, I know it's been a long time since this post was last looked on but can you please post a Example CAPX of this? I would really love to see how this is handled and how it goes with my backgrounds.

Sorry to bump this thread. Still looking for a solution.

How do I lerp the hue?

I have set R G B as variable and set a range for each to be generated randomly. How do I set the lerp for the transition to happen smoothly?
