Help with Checkbox expression transforming position of Layer

Question

Hi I need some help with this expression, I keep getting an error saying expression must be a result of dimension 2 not 1.

This is the current expression

x = transform.position[1];// current location of object x axis

y = transform.position[1];// current location of object in y axis

x1 = 1 ;

Y1 = 1 ;

cb = effect("1-1")("Checkbox") ;

if (cb ==1) {

{x1,Y1};

} else {[x,y];}

You have defined both x and y as the y value of position in the first two lines.

The if statement has x1 and Y1 in {} and they should be in [];

If I wanted the checkbox to move the layer from its current X, Y position to 1, 1 this is how I would write it.

cb = effect("1-1")("Checkbox");
if (cb == 1) {
    [1, 1];
} 
else {
    position;
}

If you want to define variables for everything I would write it like this:

pos = position;
x1 = 1 ;
y1 = 1 ;
cb = effect("1-1")("Checkbox");
if (cb == 1) {
     [x1, y1];
} 
else{
     position;
}
