Having some problems with an expression..

I have two objects .. "hood_CNTRL_01_CNTR" and "hood_CNTRL_01_L" and a null called "hood_CNTRL_02_L"
I want hood_CNTRL_02_L to be centered between the two other objects. I can make it work with .Position but I need the world position.. this is the expression I have so far
center([hood_CNTRL_01_CNTR.wpos(Time).Y],[hood_CNTRL_01_L.wpos(Time).Y])

But I get an error telling me "that channel does not exist. Im anyone who can help out here.

Nevermind, I figured it out.. the correct expression should be
center(hood_CNTRL_01_CNTR.wpos(Time).y,hood_CNTRL_01_L.wpos(Time).y)
Hope this is usefull to someone else

Yup, its case sensitive. You could also use the center function which does the same thing. Also, if nothing else, expression builder is useful for looking such things up. :)

its not the case sensitivity thats the problem here (meaning I did try changing most of whats in the expression) .. its the brackets.. I used the center hip expression from the expression builder, but that didnt position it with world position.
