How link Rotation to different comp?
I need to control the y rotation of my layer from a different comp. I have tried pick wicking to an angle control in other comp and the controller works until I try to keyframe it. I also tried linking to YRot of a null but again I cannot seem to keyframe the movement.
Is there a way to do this. It seems like a very basic thing but I have tried and failed. Can someone please explain in layman’s terms how I do this. I know I have to pickwick etc but why is the movement unable to keyframe?

This happens if the nested comp layer has been moved in time so that it doesn’t start at time = 0. You need to compensate for that by modifying your rotation expression to something like this:
C = comp(“Main Comp”);
ctrl = C.layer(“controls”).effect(“Angle Control”)(“Angle”);
L = C.layer(thisComp.name);
ctrl.valueAtTime(time+L.startTime)Dan
