Hello Dan,
Do you think this could work with the text left-justified? -
Mr. Ebberts,
Thank you so much for being the person that you are.This worked perfectly!

I was trying to use Evan’s example, which unfortunately is limited to monospaced fonts only. It will do for now if I can figure out how to connect two boxes which effect each other.
In his example we have a text with rectangle shape, which position path is connected with the path scale
temp = content(“Rectangle 1”).content(“Rectangle Path 1”).size[0];
[temp/2, 0]And the scale is connected to the text
The expressions used in this tutorial are:
temp = thisComp.layer(“TEXT”).text.sourceText;
L = temp.length;
x =100 * (L * .9);
[250+x, value[1]]If I can at least combine two of these shapes(with text) I’ll be on the right track.

Thank you very much! I’d never assume this would work with scaling the elements. I was trying to use a similar expression but on the position properties and my point was to figure out some type of mathematical progression to correlate the scale of the big bar and the position of all the other elements. This seems simple and elegant.
Thanks again. -
Ken thanks for the reply, but this is exactly what I did – tracked the arm and placed the arm track layer on top. The screen track on the bottom still picks up the arm movement above. May be something about the settings?
here is a link to 2 screenshots of my mocha file

Dan hello,
my problem is simple – > I have 35 layers of “sun rays” and I would like all of them to scale randomly (at a different scale and rate from one another) on the their Y axis but I was looking for the option of controlling that with a single slider rather than applying a wiggle on each one of them with different parameters.
