Controlling “3D” box with expressions.
Alright, so I’ve made myself a “3D” box in AE. I just took 4 solids (didn’t need a back or a bottom), and aligned them in 3D space to form a mock-3D box.
The first problem I’m having is linking just the y value of each of the faces to the slider control on a null object I’ve got. Here’s the code I’m using:
[transform.position[1],thisComp.layer("BoxNull").effect("Slider Control")("Slider")]and while the y value is now linked to the value of the slider, both the x and z have also changed (the x actually changed to the previous value of y, and the z changes to 0).
So, can anyone tell me why the x and z changed? I need them to stay at fixed values.

Try this:
[transform.position[0],thisComp.layer(“BoxNull”).effect(“Slider Control”)(“Slider”), transform.position[2]]

I actually figured it out after trying it on a different letter (same thing that you posted, actually). Thanks anyways though!
