  • Parenting Advanced lightning origin to a null

    Posted by Victor G vilar on October 1, 2020 at 8:20 pm

    I’ve beeen googling but no luck 🙁 I want to parent the origin of the Advanced Lightning effect to a Null but if I do it directly from the parent Icon of Origin to the Null Position I got an error. How must I do that? Thanks

    I’m not sure how you’ve been trying to do it, but an Origin expression like this should work:

    L = thisComp.layer("Null 1");

    fromComp(L.toComp(L.anchorPoint))

    It works perfectly. I missed where I’ve seen that before. I’ll add your answer to my markers and don’t ask again the same thing 🙂 .

    Thanks, Dan
