Hey all,
I have a basic expression issue that I've seen here before but can't
remember or find it.
I have the position of a null that I want to drive the rotation of another
layer. but it makes the starting rotation at 1x+206 instead of zero
This seems to work:

thisComp.layer("controller").transform.position[0]

but it makes the starting rotation at 1x+206 instead of zero

Would I need to subtract this number in the expression?

Thanks
