2D Position Projected to 3D Layer
There is a comp with Camera and animated 2Dnull, which position I want to project to the 3D layer 8000 pixels in Z from Cam. Unfortunately:
var pp = thisComp.layer("2DNull") ; thisLayer.fromWorld(pp.toWorld(pp.anchorPoint)) ;applied to the effect “Point Control”, gives scaled down results, not following the 2D position.
What am I missing?replied 1 week, 3 days ago 3 Members · 4 Replies

This might be what you’re looking for:
L = thisComp.layer("2DNull");
fromCompToSurface(L.position) -
Woah, apparently the answer was on the surface.. thank you for bringing it up, Dan!
I remember reading about it in the manual, wondered the real application, seldom saw it mentioned in tutorials. Copilot was none the wiser.
Thank you, thank you, thank you Master! -
Happy to help. 🙂
