Ah! Good to know, I was unaware! Thank you!

My assumption is that Windows will not play this format unless the user has downloaded an additional plugin for QT, but i may be wrong.

That is what I was thinking as well, I heard about a lossless H264 format from other online forums but have never encountered it in my own work. My only hesitation about ProRes 444 is that Windows won’t play it.
The purpose of this output is to give a client a highest resolution copy as possible for archiving purposes. That way if they need the video in another format they can compress it easily on their end.

I’ve created a “Leader” object which moves in Y position, and attached a slider effect renamed “post” to it.

Then, in the layer above it I wrote this expression under the position property:
(see below)

The problem is, it copies the X & Y properties exactly. What I want to do is mimic the change in value of Y of the Control layer while retaining its own separate Y value. Does that make sense?

Thank you so much for your help!

post=thisComp.layer("CONTROL").effect("post")("Slider")
thisComp.layer(index+1).transform.position.valueAtTime (time-thisComp.layer("CONTROL").effect("post")("Slider"))

Getting closer! it’s more like the domino effect I mentioned; Layer B follows A’s movement with delay, then Layer C follows Layer B’s movement with delay, etc. etc.

So the group of objects is not collectively moving with a delay following layer A, but rather they are all moving one after the other after the other, one by one in succession.
Again, I *really* appreciate your help Dan!

It kind of works, but then it adjusts the starting point of the layer B want to effect.

The other thing is, I want it to have a sort of domino effect, instead of all coming after Layer A moves.

Thank you for your help in advance!!
