EXPRESSIONS:
Connects this 2 dimensional value to a Slider control on a different layer, that has a wiggle applied. This way we can apply a wiggle to just 1 dimension and control it separately:
A = thisComp.layer("CTRL").effect("Stream Wig Amount")("Slider");
[value[0],value[1]+A];
Applies an continuous animation to the first dimension in a property with multiple dimensions E.g. Scale, position, etc:
[time*100,0]
