Basically I want to add 2 sliders then get the = value of those sliders.

var = RED_Slider =3D selectedLayer.Effects.addProperty("Slider = Control");

var red =3D = RED_Slider(1).value;

var = GREEN_Slider =3D selectedLayer.Effects.addProperty("Slider = Control");

var green =3D = GREEN_Slider(1).value;

If I run the = code above, it works great however if I change the order and assign the = sliders first then try to get the value, AE gives me an "invalid object" = error.

So the code below will not = work.

var RED_Slider =3D = selectedLayer.Effects.addProperty("Slider = Control");

var GREEN_Slider =3D = selectedLayer.Effects.addProperty("Slider = Control");

var red =3D= RED_Slider(1).value;

var green =3D = GREEN_Slider(1).value;

It's almost as if when I add the Green Slider, it forgets the Red = Slider.

Any = ideas?

Cheers.
