Comp: 'OUTPUT'
Layer: 1 ('Tracker 2')
Property: 'Position'

If this could be changed to:we make manual editing more intuitive in cases where the compositor precomposes the source layer and thus breaks the expression layer.Code: Select allL = comp("compName").layer("layerName");
hype wrote:So the only difference that scripting change makes is that it doesn't break when you precompose? That sounds like a great change to me if that's the case.
A workaround is to give the layer another name. But I thought I'd mention it.
