    You can only add expressions to properties that can be animated. No stopwatch, no expression.

    As a workaround, you might consider multiple layers, each one with a different “Based on” value, and link their opacity to your dropdown so that only one is actually visible.

    I have been wondering about the same thing.

    Any idea why there is a pickwhip next to the “Based On” drop down?

    Seems a bit odd that there is a pickwhip, but nothing to link it to.
