prerender elements, or don’t use 16bit effects, or use utility hdr compander.

here’s my technicolor update that protects blacks.

1. I think there was a carousel tut, but it didn’t use any expressions and was flipped sideways. I would love to see an advanced carousel with camera vectors, slides flipping, things spinning, using all the trigonometry you can muster. I’m just tired of basic keyframes, ya know!
2. I’ve always wanted to see a true teleportation tut like the new star trek.
3. advanced scripting for organic windy palm trees.
4. the 5,000 picture board effect without manual placement.
5. leaves falling.-forest gump(this one is asked for A LOT)
A lot of people ask for all of these all the time and the cow would really be great with these additions to the community. And if you need more ideas, videocopilot.net posts from users always ask if a tut of some kind can be made. A lot of ideas in there.

Ok, I think we have hit an obvious dead end. You can’t attach control points to puppet pins being resized because puppet pins stretch when moved. Unless you can get around that simple fact, all you have left is a nifty way to attach objects from different comps into scaling. Turn on the charactercomp bpuppetpin = expression signs to see what I mean. You could try keyframe disable expression while scaling.
You’ll need to use toonboom instead, which is designed for this.

also, if you put this in the anchorpoints, then if you change the final comp’s size, all the points will stay exactly in the same place.
an = thisComp.layer(“check”).transform.anchorPoint;
cw = thisComp.width /2;
ch = thisComp.height/2;[an[0]-cw, an[1]-ch];

Ok, this will now automatically work in any composition size. Apparently 600:100 is a ratio that works for all comp to world sizes, interesting…
Btw, I need to know if you need this in a script form, because, obviously, if you are moving the control points, around, they can’t be controlled by the same code. I’ll ask Dan or repost this question.
The best thing I can think of is use your input position as my input anchorpoint. I’ll see what I can come up with.cw = thisComp.width /2
ch = thisComp.height/2an = thisComp.layer(“check”).transform.anchorPoint;
b = thisComp.layer(“characterComp”).transform.scale;
c = thisComp.layer(“characterComp”).transform.scale[0];x=toWorld(b);
t1=linear(c,0,100,cw+an[0],600);
t2=linear(c,0,100,ch+an[1],600);

this post should help a ton while you wait upon Dan’s awesomeness.

I was afraid to mess up my project because it’s late and i’m tired but I’m 99% sure this works, so my code isn’t streamlined, or plug’n play.
I got the 500 from the half size of my 1000×1000 test comp and the 600 by a temporary look at the worldsize put in corner position
s=thisComp.layer(“characterComp”).transform.scale
toWorld(s)here’s the position code of the corners that each have completely customizable anchorpoints so you can put them anywhere and they still scale correctly. You can later streamline the code by replacing 500=half the comp size and 600=worldsize of scale.
an = thisComp.layer(“check”).transform.anchorPoint;
b = thisComp.layer(“characterComp”).transform.scale;
c = thisComp.layer(“characterComp”).transform.scale[0];
x = toWorld(b);
t1=linear(c,0,100,500+an[0],600);
t2=linear(c,0,100,500+an[1],600);

oops, I don’t think that works. What I think you want is scaling the precomp’s anchorpoint but still having the corner controls line up precisely?
