| I got this to work properly. A little different setup. First adding all sliders at once and naming them, which I think may have been causing your code confusion since it saw the exact same slider names. //START????????????????? var myLayer = app.project.item(1).layer("Black Solid 1"); var sliderNames = new Array("RED", "GREEN"); var sliderControls; for(var i=0; i<2; i++){ sliderControls = myLayer.Effects.addProperty("Slider Control"); sliderControls.name = sliderNames[i]; } var RED_Slider = myLayer.property("ADBE Effect Parade").property("RED").property("ADBE Slider Control-0001"); var GREEN_Slider = myLayer.property("ADBE Effect Parade").property("GREEN").property("ADBE Slider Control-0001"); RED_Slider.setValue([10]); GREEN_Slider.setValue([20]); var red = RED_Slider.value; var green = GREEN_Slider.value; alert(green); //END????????????????? -- David Torno Visual Effects Artist and Supervisor http://www.ghosttownmedia.com david@ghosttownmedia.com O: 213.739.2290 C: 818.391.6060 ------------------------------------------------ http://www.sydefxink.com (main portfolio) http://aeioweyou.blogspot.com (vfx tutorials and AE scripts blog) http://mactex.blogspot.com (free textures blog) -----Original Message----- From: Phil Spitler [mailto:phil@bonfirelabs.com] Sent: Thursday, January 10, 2013 08:14 AM To: 'After Effects Mail List' Subject: Re: [AE] Script Question Yup 2 sliders to the same layer.
