Re: nested camera output to parent camera?
by Trent Armstrong (pxlguy) on Feb 14, 2008 at 9:21:30 pm

That is very possible. You would need to set up expressions for each property you want to send to the parent comp, though.

The set up would be:

Parent Comp
Nested Comp


Inside Parent Comp use this expression for the camera's position.
comp("Nested Comp").layer("Camera 1").position

It's also possible to undock the timeline for your comps and then use the expressions pickwhip to take the info from the correct properties.

Good Luck!
