Text layer that displays another layer’s X, Y and Z points?

[Dan Ebberts]

Well, in its basic form it would look something like this:

P = thisComp.layer(“other layer”).position;
P[0] + ” ” + P[1] + ” ” + P[2]

but you might want to add rounding and/or other formatting.

Thanks Dan. I suspected you’d know!!

You’re right I would like to round the values up to the nearest whole number. I tried adding this:

Math.round(P)

to the end, but it hasn’t worked. Can you tell me what I’m doing wrong?

Many thanks

You have to round each of the pieces:

P = thisComp.layer(“other layer”).position;
Math.round(P[0]) + ” ” + Math.round(P[1]) + ” ” + Math.round(P[2])
