Pick whipping multiple values at once

[rossigoat]

Hi there,

I'm wondering if anyone has a workaround to pick whipping multiple values (like color, below) at once. I know you can parent multiple layers all at the same time, but if I wanted to pick whip multiple color controls to a master controller, I have to pick whip them one by one.

Thanks!

The easiest way to do what you want is to create the first expression using the pickwhip, select the property, go to Edit/Copy Expression only, then select all of the other layers and paste. I use that workflow all the time. 

If you use layer index instead of layer name for the controller layer, this will not work. 

The other option is to save a custom Animation preset, then apply the preset to all of the other layers
