Simple X and Y offset
Hi Guys,
I’ve parented the positional value from object A to follow the positional value of object B. As well as follow its position, I would like to offset the x value by an additional 100px and the y value by an additional 50px. What would be the expression needed to achieve this?
thanks,
Greg

Something like this should do it:
thisComp.layer(“object B”).transform.position + [100,50]

Hello Dan,
Do you know how to offset the position of parented layers using an incremental value? Like, 1st layer 100px off, 2nd layer 110px, 3rd layer 120px…

What do you mean by “1st layer”, “2nd layer”, etc.?
If you mean that you have a chain of parented layers and you want each one farther down the chain to have more offset, you could do something like this:
L = thisLayer;
offset = 100;
while(L.hasParent){
offset += 10;
L = L.parent;
}
value + offset
