  X Position offset

  Posted by Richard Lyons on July 7, 2010 at 10:46 pm

  I have a null layer with slider control that I need to control the X position of 2 layers.

  Need to get the expression working that as I move the slider value up, the 2 layers move apart from each other in X pos only, then back down with the slider they move together.

  Can anyone steer me in the right direction?!

  Many thanks in advance…

  Probably something like this for one:

  s = thisComp.layer(“Null 1”).effect(“Slider Control”)(“Slider”);
  value + s

  and this for the other:

  s = thisComp.layer(“Null 1”).effect(“Slider Control”)(“Slider”);
  value – s
