Thanks, Dan! Works perfectly.

I made a simple representation file where you can see the problem. I’d like the null in 4 minute comp to start moving exactly when its control null moves in the 1 minute composition. Now it starts moving too soon. ☺

Yeah, I thought that might be way more difficult.

I’ve heard there’s a way to do that with markers too. I just have no idea of how. Also, could it be possible with keyframes if I added a keyframe to every start point of a new action and then looped that action from that specific keyframe?

Thanks, that works like a charm! Will be very useful.

How about if there’s more than two different actions in the precomp? Like if theres the walk cycle, the character stop and lets say… some dancing and then waving hand? Is there a way to jump between different times in the precomp and loop them?

EDIT:

Sorry. It doesn’t affect depending on the position of the anchorpoint but still the position of the very center of “haka1”.

So yeah, I’d need it to affect to the borders of the shape if that’s even possible. 🙂

Hi, Dan! Thanks for your reply!

The code seems to act like the one I pasted here. The opacity still reacts to the anchorpoint of “haka1” but not the shape.

Some more info. I’m having a 4K 16:9 composition and the master layer I’m moving is a shape of ^. I’d like to have small squares (like big pixels) to change opacity depending on how close they are to that shape path. That means I also want the code to ignore the bounding box. Only to affect the shape of the layer.

Did I do something wrong?
