Yeah!  You can just add comp("Comp Name") in the beginning like this:

comp("Comp 1").layer("Solid 1").transform.opacity

Or, if you split your timeline panels so you can see each comp's timeline at the same time, you can just pickwhip directly to the layer's opacity in the other comp and you don't even need to type it.

I'm under the gun and need to find a simple expression to link a layers opacity from one comp into a layer on another comp.  If anyone can help with the syntax I would be grateful, while I search the web.

Thanks,
John
