particle world position link to null
having trouble linking the individual position x, y, z values with the position values from a 3D enabled null
the particle world emitter still works until i move the null in any direction and it just disappears

This should work for x:
p = thisComp.layer(“Null 1”).transform.position;
d = (p – [thisComp.width/2,thisComp.height/2,0])/thisComp.width;
d[0]Then just change the last line to d[1] for y and d[2] for z.
You’ll probably need to fiddle with the effect’s camera paramters to get it to match up exactly.

thanks – does particle world use some kind of wierd comp size coordinate units?

It appears that 1.0 in Particle World equates to the width of the comp, with the center of the default view being [0,0,0].

I know it’s an old thread, but still relevant.
it seems the X code you wrote works fine, but the Y doesn’t for some reason.
I changed the d[1] as you said, I also changed the first line to match the y.Position also.no luck, any idea?
