Animate between two Expression Color Control colors

Question

Hey!I have a video with some solid shapes, that animate from one color to another and back a few times. Currently I've simply used the "fill" effects and animated the color parameter. I now want to get some extra control over that by specifying the two fill colors using two "Color Control" effects. How would I implement that? Especially the smooth fade between the colors.Thanks for your input!

...didn't research properly...Solution (from Andrei Popa on CreativeCow): (put this expression on the "fill" effect)Col=thisComp.layer("BG").effect("Slider Control")("Slider");color1=thisComp.layer("SETTINGS").effect("Color 1")("Color");color2=thisComp.layer("SETTINGS").effect("Color 2")("Color");linear (Col,0,100,color1,color2)

Good that you already found a solution!If you have iExpressions, it also comes with a linear color link expression, which does not require you to touch any code at all:
