what does math.floor mean?

Thanks Dan both these work a treat.

I’ll try and work out what is going on in each expression, I might have to come back to you with how each one works, because these look a little out of my depth.

Many thanks for your help… once again!

Sorry, didn’t mean to confuse.

I am trying to create the effect that, as the 3d text layer nears the exact position [545,506,0.0] it scales up the closer it gets, so as it reaches exactly that position it will be 200%. Does that make sense?

For example; the 3d text layer has a scale of 100% and a position of 445,506,0 (100 frames off, on the x axis) but as it animates near the exact position [545,506,0.0], it scales up. So that by the time it reaches the exact position it is 200%.

Therefore using the figures in this example every 10 pixels it gets closer to the exact position it will scale up 10%.

Or does this just confuse further?

Thanks Dan

I’ll give this a whirl, but here is the interesting final step…

Is there a way to say as the 3d text gets within say 10 pixels of the magic position [545,506,0] that it will gradually scale something like 10% per pixel?

Many thanks Dan you are the king!

Thanks Randy

I’ll try the first option, that sounds like the most useable way of doing what I am trying to achieve as option 2 would be fine, but I have some pretty heavy fog going in the scene as well and each render takes quite a bit of time.

Thanks for the help

what does delta mean? Is it just a random term or does it mean something?

Many thanks for your help, it works exactly how I wanted.
