  syntax error where?

  Posted by Mark Samuels on May 18, 2014 at 8:52 am

  Im rigging a puppet and getting an error when I put the code –
  Error at line 1 in property Position of layer 2 (CheekL) in comp ‘puppet’. Syntax error.

  I have gone over the code but cannot see any error. Can someone please help. Maybe Im too tired and can’t see it? Im following a tut and it looks exactly the same to me.

  Blink=comp(“MainHeadv1.5”).layer(“Head Controls”).effect(“Blink”)(“Slider”);

  Mouth=comp(“MainHeadv1.5”).layer(“Head Controls”).effect(“Mouth”)(“Slider”);

  Smile=comp(“MainHeadv1.5”).layer(“Head Controls”).effect(“Smile”)(“Slider”);

  EyeBrows=comp(“MainHeadv1.5”).layer(Head Controls”).effect(“EyeBrows”)(“Slider”);

  Anger=comp(“MainHeadv1.5”).layer(“Head Controls”).effect(“Anger”)(“Slider”);

  Jaw=comp(“MainHeadv1.5”).layer(“Head Controls”).effect(“Smile”)(“Slider”);

  Cheeks=comp(“MainHeadv1.5”).layer(“Head Controls”).effect(“Cheeks”)(“Slider”);

  PosX=transform.position[0]+Smile;

  PosY=transform.position[1]-Smile-Cheeks;

  [PosX,PosY];

  Check your quotation marks. It looks like a lot of them are curly quotes (which won’t work) and there’s one missing in the 4th line.
