The title pretty much explains it all. Is there a way to get the in and out spatial tangents of a 2D / 3D keyframe within an expression?

I’ve tried playing around with velocityAtTime(), but it gives a value that, while in the same direction as the spatial tangent, has the wrong magnitude, and I can’t figure out the relationship between the…

– I want to project an arbitrary point (that’s not the position of a 3D layer) from world space to composition space.

For this specific case, I’ve gone about it by creating an “Origin” layer and utilising it as such:

var origin =…
