[Closed] Is this what is called a floating pivot???

So the following video shows a point helper (using list controllers) to wire one of its rotation controllers to one of its own position controllers– using an expression to make it rotate about the other helper and following it as well. Doing a refs.dependencyLoopTest $p1 $p2 returns false. I’m sure this is beginner-level stuff for the majority of folks in this forum…

I’m thinking of adding another position controller under the list controller and driving it with custom attribute spinners to allow for the rotation radius to be animated as well…

…but to be a true animatable pivot the orbiting node should not follow the other node ($p1), but stay in place while $p1 moves (using Steps as DenisT showed…) and simultaneously having the radius animate/step at the same time as $p1… right?
