Thank you so much Dan. That is working perfectly.

Can you please tell me what you mean by tolerance though and what it is doing?

Thank you again
Chris

Hi Dan

I have a guide layer with a strict colour pallet, that the user will choose with the eye dropper. This effect is on a null, acting as the Master controller, and also on the BG and Text comp layers. The latter is expressed to the master controller Null.

Each BG colour has a correspsonding colour to it, which i wanted to make automatic.

There are about 8-10 different BG colours to choose from.

Thanks once again

Chris

This is what i thin i need to do, but its not working for me.

color1 = [0.6667, 0.7098, 0.1137, 1];
color2 = [0.6078, 0.0392, 0.3176, 1];
color3 = [0.3137, 0.6392, 0.7294, 1];

n = thisComp.layer(“Controller”).effect(“BG Colour”)(“Color”);
if (n==color1) {
color2
} else if (n==color2) {
color1
} else if (n==color3) {
color2
} else {
0
}

Thanks
Chris

or just to throw a spanner in the works, for the cost of an Aja Io, should i invest that money and buy a Mac Pro instead with a BlackMagic card?

Cheers
Chris
