I have a script that does a few things, and upon completion i need it to add an expression the the position of a layer in a comp. the expression is saves on its own in a .js file and the script is supposed to load it. this isnt' working at all the way i expect it to. here's what i have now. any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Code: Select all

var positionExpression = new File("R10_PositionExpression.js");
controlComp.layer("Bounce Variable Controls").position.expression = positionExpression;

Thanks!

Hey Ben,

You need to either read in the file or evaluate it. Since it's a .js you should be able to evaluate it:

$.evalFile(positionExpression);
