Transform Position Offset
Hi,
Right now I’m achieving what I want through a simple distort effect (“Transform”), but I’m wanting to achieve the same thing using an expression, so that I’m able to eventually convert it’s path to keyframes and generate a new motion path which is offset from an original layer. I’m going to be taking these into Newton, which is the reason why. Here’s a video of what I want (on the left). On the right is an attempt to offset the position using an expression, but it’s not doing what I want it to. I think I need an entirely new expression for it, but I don’t know where to start or how to achieve it.And finally, here’s the transform effect and how I have it set (basically, I modified the Position values in it):
Thanks for any help!

Try this:
offset = 40;
value + toCompVec([0,1,0])*offsetDan

And of course, as always, Dan’s the Man. Thanks so much Dan, it works perfectly. I’m sure I speak for all of us when I say thank you for taking the time and posting on these forums.
