Drive Y position of shape with Y position of another shape
Hello expression geniuses!
I’m looking for a little help, I’ve tried random tinkering and googling to no avail.
Is there a way to have the y position of one shape drive the y position of a second shape, without splitting the x,y values?
I have two circles contained inside a single shape layer, and I’ve animated circle 1 to bob up and down with no movement on the x axis. I’d like circle 2 to follow along exactly with circle 1. Normally I’d just use the pick whip for this, but then it tries to use both the x and y values so I wind up with circle 2 bobbing on top of circle 1 rather than next to it.
I had hoped that
content(“left eye”).transform.position[1]=content(“right eye”).transform.position[1]
would work, but that just kicks back an error.
Any help is appreciated!

It should be like this:
p = content(“left eye”).transform.position;
[value[0],p[1]]Dan

Thanks Dan!
That worked great. Perhaps one day I will master these crazy expressions, but until then I’m glad great people like you are around to help!
