Hi All,

I know I can select a mask shape, copy it, and paste that into a position property. But this does not seems to work when the mask resides on a layer in 3D. Basically I have a 2D mask with a stroke. this is my road. Now I want my camera to travel down the road along the mask path.

My workflow is such...
Select the mask shape, hit CTRL-C to copy the mask shape.
Select the NULL (my camera is parented to this) position property and hit paste. In 2D this works fine, but in 3D it does not. My path position is always in 2D even if I copy from the source layer when its 3D layer is turned on.

Is there a script to correctly copy 3D positions from a mask?
