Using slider to control precomp frame number
Hello all,
I have what I know is an absurdly simple question that I KNOW I’ve seen answered before, but dang it, I can’t find the answer. I’m trying to build a template comp where the user can dial in which lower third banner gets used. I pre-built a bunch of configurations, and I have them, each with a 1 frame duration, strung out across a precomp. The user should be able to scrub a slider control (or any expression controller that makes sense to associate with the task) to find the banner that best suits the typographic layout. Can someone out there walk me through the best way to approach this?
Your help is much appreciated

Just drop your comp in another comp, turn on time remapping, add a slider, and add a time remapping expression like this:
s = effect("Slider Control")("Slider");

Thank you, Dan – you are a national treasure. Nay – International
