Like this maybe:

 

p = thisProperty;

pts = p.points();

N1 = thisComp.layer("Null 1");

N2 = thisComp.layer("Null 2");

p1 = fromComp(N1.toComp(N1.anchorPoint));

p2 = fromComp(N2.toComp(N2.anchorPoint));

pts[0] = p1;

pts[pts.length-1] = p2;

createPath(pts,p.inTangents(),p.outTangents(),p.isClosed())

Subject: [AE] mask splines

 

Is there a way to take the end points of a spline and use expressions to parent them to nulls?  

 

I have animated splines, lightning bolts, and want the ends to lock to two different animated objects.

 

I'm not seeing a way to isolate a point in a spline mask...is this possible?

 

Thanks,

John
