If you are tired of the pain of the expression editor then learn how to use an external text editor to code Expression in After Effects. One mistake to point out is that is that I recommend downloading Visual Studio Basic, I meant to say download Visual Studio Code. They are both Microsoft products that does similar things, but for coding with Expression you want VSC. Thank me by sending all of your turkey to me, Happy Thanksgiving.
