Is your question how to deal with expressions or how to access the width of a shape layer?

Do you want to SET or want to GET the width via expressions?

To set the width, it's as easy as this - applied to Rectangle Path -> Size

[500, value[1]];

To get the width, you apply this on an different layer:

thisComp.layer("Shape Layer 1").content("Rectangle 1").content("Rectangle Path 1").size[0]

I hope, this helps!
