    hello
    can anybody solve this isuue which seems to be too easy.

    I have linked the position of lens’ flare ( both Video Copilot 3d Flare and John Knoll’ Plugin as well)to my light source position via expression. it just works and goes the same way but flare isn’t sticking the light source’s position precisely, and there is some little space between them.
    here is the picture:

    [thisComp.layer("Emitter").transform.position[0],thisComp.layer("Emitter").transform.position[1],0]

    Try it this way:

    fromComp(thisComp.layer(“Emitter”).toComp([0,0,0]))
