You'll need to add a 'look at' expression.  Here's an example: http://www.motion-graphics-exchange.com/after-effects/2D-Look-at/496a0ee0d51cf

Groups allow you to have effectors and renderers only affect some of the geometry in your Plexus.  You simply assign any geomertry object to be in a specific group (they are all in group 1 by default) and then in the effector and renderer set the 'Effect Only Group' pulldown to be the group you want it affect.

Thanks Lloyd.
Any idea as to how I keep text layers anchored to the plexus point cloud - so that when I rotate the cloud, the text layers move too, but are always facing the camera.

thank.

T DI

for reference - this is the exact thing im looking for...

You can use the new Sprites feature in Plexus 2:

Hey T DI,

If by any chance you still check this post after all these years, here  something that can work: you can apply an 'Auto Orient' expression to your text layers http://www.motionscript.com/design-guide/auto-orient-y-only.html (You can also apply it to the Y rotation of a null and make t drive the text by parenting the Y rotation of the text layers to the rot. of the Null)
