Control Fx on off (or opacity) of several layers from slider control or checkbox

[Nicolás Elvira]

Hi! Im new here and I’m trying to make a template for myself and my team, and we have different color pallettes for different uses. I would like to control this different 4 color gradients (in each layer, backgorunds and several shape layers) from one layer, with a slider control or different checkbox controllers.

I was trying with something like this

– if (thisComp.layer(“GRADIENT”).effect(“Corporate”)(“Checkbox”) > 0) {100} else {0}. on the fx opacity expression. It works with one but it´ starts to fail once I add another checkbox controller for the second gradient.

or I would like to assign a specific range in the slider control to select one 4 Color Gradient (from its opacity) or another, but I didnt find the right expression…

slider = thisComp.layer(“GRADIENT”).effect(“Gradients”)(“Slider”);

if (slider < 0 || slider > 1) 100 else 0

Any ideas?

Thanks very much in advance

Alternatively, You could add the different looks as keyframes in just 1 effect.

And then use expressions on those keyframes to choose the value of key(n)

with n being controlled by a slider or pop-up selector
