Minmax radius based on alpha or other value

Question

I have bunch of periods on a text layer set to follow a path to be able to animate the path and also use range selectors to animate properties of the characters. I'm using the minmax effect to generate pillshapes from the dots. Is there anyway to link the radius of the minmax effect to the alpha (or size) of a dot? So smaller, or more transparent, the dot the shorter the minmax radius. Hope the image helps to explain the idea.

Long and short: No. You need to think of another technique to create your strokes. Why not simply create them using the | character right away and then scale them horizoantlly with your animators to add thickness? Similalrly, you could use the █ character and invert the scale. Once that's done you can still round off your stuff with MiniMax and blurs...
