referencing xyz position of a layer from a different comp
Hello,
I am scratching my head on how to call the xyz position of layer A in comp 1 at frame “t” and assign them to layer B in comp 2 (different timestamp).
To do so, I’m assigning a slider to select the frame # in comp 1 and figuring out how to extract the xyz position at that exact frame number and transfer them to a layer in comp 2.
Could you give me some pointers on where to look at?
Thank you for your time.

This might not be exactly what you’re looking for, but it should give you the position of layer “A” in “comp 1” at the frame specified by a slider:
s = effect(“Slider Control”)(“Slider”);
t = framesToTime(Math.round(s));
p = comp(“comp 1”).layer(“A”).transform.position.valueAtTime(t);Dan

Thank you so much Dan. I think it will do it exactly what I need!
Cheers!
