    Oh man… I just found the issue. It was pointing to a comp that didn’t have enough layers so it was trying to ref a layer that didn’t exist. Thank you so much!

    Thank you so much for the quick reply! Sorry I add this question to the wrong message board.

    I agree that should work but I’m still receiving an error. “Bad Argument: layer index out of range Expression disabled.” I’m glad you’re thinking it should work too, but AE is just telling me no. Is there any reason why this would not work? Neither the one I’ve typed below or written before (using the variable “layerNum”).

    refLayerScale = comp(“Comp 2”).layer(thisLayer.index).transform.scale;

    The code above does not work, however, changing thisLayer.index to a numeric value does work. So I’m thinking the rest of my equation is good? Feel like I’m missing something else. Any thoughts?

    This was all super helpful. I’m also beginning to understand more how to search for things and key words on creative cow. Thank you!!
