How can I obtain the value of an expression from within a script ?
For example
Code: Select all
length(this_comp.layer("A").position, this_comp.layer("B").position);
The scripting engine does not recognize length().

You could apply the expression to a property:
Code: Select all
property.expression = "wiggle(0.5, 100)";
and then get the post-expression value of the property;
Code: Select all
var expressionResult = property.valueAtTime(comp.time, false);
