Yep I see what you’re saying and that’d work. I did a lesser solution – yours would also allow me to control all the comps with the one controller. I just moved the controller inside the solid comp and changed the pointers to thisComp.layer(“Controller”) so that when I duplicate the comps the expressions are always pointing to the controller inside of their own comp. However I didn’t do them all as there are 25 layers with 5 expressions each and it’s tedious to change. I just wanted to test it’d work.
Still I reckon there’s a better way of doing it, frustrating but I can let it go!
Thanks Eduardo.
