  • Error when adding expression….what does it mean?

    Posted by A. Gill on May 5, 2005 at 2:53 pm

    Hello,
    I’m trying to add an expression to the position property of a layer to create a trail of images. the expression is: thisComp.layer(thisLayer, -1).position.valueAtTime(time – .5) When I apply this, I get the following error message: Bad argument: layer index 0 out of range. Error occurred at line 1.

    what does this mean and how can I fix it?
    thanks for any help.

    You get the error because you also applied the expr. to layer N
