I tried on the camera, and the Z but still not.

Thanks guys, you are amazing..

Everything is fine unless that is goes in the opposite way not toward the camera as it was before..

What value I should add a (-) to?

This is the current code:

mouse_layer = thisComp.layer("mouse layer");

beginScale = 0;
endScale = 2100;
beginDistance = 600;
endDistance = 0;

w = thisComp.width;
p0 = value + 30;
camPos = [1440,540,-2240];
m = length(camPos,p0)/camPos[2];
v = normalize(camPos-p0);
dis = length(position, mouse_layer.position);
val = ease(dis, beginDistance, endDistance, endScale*m, beginScale);
p0 + v*val

Thanks Dan..

Thank you Dan, its working nice.

One more thing is that all the objects are following the same Z distance, it should be also calculated according to where that object X position is (close or far from the camera), So the object on the very left and the very right should move a longer Z than the one in the center.

I tried to add this.x to each object’s (endScale) but I ended with that the very right crosses the most distance.

Thanks again.

Actually you are right about the camera angel, I was thinking of adding an x-position offset to the layer to move toward the center of the camera, is that possible? like
beginX = 0; endX = mouse_layer.position + something;
but how do you think it can happen?


mouse_layer = thisComp.layer("mouse layer");
beginZ = 0;
endZ = -1200;
beginDistance = 100;
endDistance = 0;
dis = length(this.position, mouse_layer.position);
z = ease(dis, beginDistance, endDistance, endZ,beginZ );
value + [0,0,z]


Thanks

Perfect..
Its working very well.
Thanks you very much.

Thank for the reply, but it doesn’t work, maybe I missed some information, I attached the AE file so you guys can have a look at it.
Basically I want the layers (1,2,3,4) to move close & far toward the camera in z-axis once the (mouse layer) move close to them.

Thanks in advance.

Is it possible to change the scale method to a Z-axis position, I mean, instead of scaling the layers, I want to move them forward and backward in Z-axis when the mouse layer moves.

Thanks in advance..
