Checkbox controlling 2 different sets of array possibilities – Error
I’m trying to control the position of null based on if it’s being controlled by a slider or not.
If it’s controlled by the slider – It moves.
If it’s not controlled by the slider it returns to it’s default position and does not move.I get the “Dimension error” 1 instead of 3
I’m searching all over the place and I can’t figure out why this does not make sense?!?!
control = effect("Checkbox Control")("Checkbox") ;
xoffset=thisComp.layer("Camera Controls").effect("Mosaic Mover X")("Slider")*30;
yoffset=thisComp.layer("Camera Controls").effect("Mosaic Mover Y")("Slider")*20;
x=parent.position.value[0];
y=parent.position.value[1];
z=parent.position.value[2];if (control == 0){
[x+xoffset,y+yoffset,z];
}else{
[x,y,z];

Not sure, but try removing the semicolons fro the end of the [x+xoffset,y+yoffset,z]; and [x,y,z]; lines. I might be wrong, but it’s worth a shot.

Yeah, I thought of that prior to posting. Just tried it again to make sure I wasn’t crazy… yup, not crazy.

Holy Guacamole!!!
I was putting it on the wrong layer….
I reduced it to 1 dimension like it was asking for, and once I no longer got the error, I could not change the value. That’s when I knew I had it on the wrong layer… ugh.
Thanks anyway, Paul.

Hmm….I’ve just tested that expression and it doesn’t generate any errors for me – it evaluates OK, but I’m not sure exactly what you’re trying to achieve by it. If you want the checkbox to control whether or not the………………….
….ah – just seen you’ve solved it!
