Are you sure you need the guy to parent to the ladder?
What about linking the guys position + scale to the ladder, but its rotation to the floor?
Cheers,

Subject: Rotation Expression Problem
Hi everyone,
I'm struggling with a project right now and can't seem to find the
appropriate orientation / rotation expression.
In this project I have 3 layers, the floor, the ladder and the guy.
I have to keep the guy perpendicular to the floor. But the guy layer is
parented to the ladder, and the ladder is animated on all it's rotation
axis (imagine a flying carpet, but looking like a ladder).
I can't seem to find the correct expressions to keep the guy
perpendicular to the floor (which can also be animated on it's
orientation/rotation axis) in all cases. The guy parenting to the ladder
adds a lot of complication that my non-math-friendly head can't seem to
overcome.
Any hint ?
Cheers,
Seb
