Thanks for the response, Roland. I was worried that was the case… my unit has been using Dynamic Linking, so I was investigating mogrts as a way to possibly speed up that workflow/avoid opening After Effects… maybe one day!

I’m trying to combine two fairly complicated expressions to connect the sourceText property of a text layer to define and link to a dropdown menu in a control layer for font selection and to a slider on the same layer to allow a limited amount of characters per line… Read more
