  • How can i copy the y position of another object and delay it?

    Here is my Expression coping the y position of my other shape:

    [645.4,thisComp.layer(“Circle LocatorFlw Border”).transform.position[1]]

    645.4 is the static position of my X position, and then i take the position of my Circle LocatorFlw Border. But how can i delay it?? probably 5 frames or something like that.

    [645.4,thisComp.layer("Circle LocatorFlw Border").transform.position[1]]

    I haven’t test this, but it should be close:

    delayFrames = 5;
    delay = framesToTime(delayFrames);
    y = thisComp.layer(“Circle LocatorFlw Border”).transform.position.valueAtTime(time-delay)[1];
    [645.4,y]
