If you make a pre comp the layers you want to affect with the adjustment layer, and then apply the adjustment layer on top in that precomp it will affect all the layers in that comp.

Aaah,

thank you Mr. Ebberts, I think I see,

While the sine wave is above the x Axis it’s gotta positive value thus, the expression gives opacity 100% (for any positive including Zero), then when the sine wave goes to a negative value the expression gives it an opacity of 0%.

And dividing Pi by the time you want it to take to flash on and off, you constrain the Freq of completing a full circle to take F (in this case) seconds?

Is my understanding correct?

Thanks,
Derrick

six colors in 3 seconds is not much, I would just keyframe them

if it’s PAL, keyframe the color value about every twelve frames, if it’s NTSC keyframe it every 14 frames.

Alt-Click on the stopwatch for the OPACITY value of the duplicate text layer (that you set it’s blend mode to Lighten).

Then it will allow you to enter text, put the random(100) there.

Ig you don’t come right let me know, I’ll make you a sample project.
What version of AE are you running

Please give us some more details.

what type of object are you using?
How many different colors in three seconds?
