Copy font and size from text layer

[Spade Studio]

Hi guys,

Another question here, but I am not sure if this is possible... :')

I have a Text layer linked to a Slider, which makes the text into customizable numbers, good there.

It looks like this:

Red layer: text linked to slider

Blue layer: normal text

What I need to do is the red layer to read the 'Font' and 'Size' from the blue layer, but not the 'Source Text'.

I do not now if that is even possible, but will have a try asking you guys!

Thank you!

Something like this, probably:

txt = effect("Slider Control")("Slider").value.toFixed(0);
s = thisComp.layer("Blue Layer").text.sourceText.style;
style.setFont(s.font).setFontSize(s.fontSize).setText(txt)

Oh!

Thank you very much!
