Hello,
I’ve somehow made a draggable slider that changes the number value inside of a text box (so very cool!). 
How would I use this to change the alpha color value of a shape or the font size of text? I guess my question is how do I drill down into the elements (appearance elements)?
Any help figuring this out would be greatly appreciated!
Firstly, please share how you created that slider…I would love to be able to .
Secondly, in terms of changing the alpha color, there isn’t a really sleek way to do so…you could though set conditionals on the element to change the background color and the alpha value
The unfortunate thing is that the alpha value doesn’t accept dynamic data ( something to request as a new feature ), so you are unable to link the alpha value to a value set on the slider.
To change the font size it would be the same thing…conditionals on the text element, which would be a bit less cumbersome to set up than the alpha color because with alpha you’d need essentially 99 conditionals ( unless you use a range value ), but with the text you could determine the number of options to provide.
Other options I believe would be using CSS, HTML or Javascript…none of which I am familiar enough with to instruct on, but I believe in the codes you can use dynamic data, which could be referenced to a custom state or something that stores the value of the slider to set the alpha color or font size in your code.
Hi @boston85719, thank you so much for the reply, it sounds crazy having to setup 99 different conditionals but I do like the idea of something that stores the value to set the font size etc…, I guess my next step is to learn conditionals.
To answer how I created the slider… 
Drag a Slider Input into the scene set its min and max values (0, 100), you can use any numbers, if the slider is longer I would use a larger number to have the effect of a smooth slider, if you did for example 0 to 10 there would be steps which is ok if thats what you are looking for.
Happy Coding!Hopefully I can figure out the Font size thing next? (seems it may be easier than the alpha for now), maybe I’ll start smaller with a button to change the font size.
Hey! Did you ever figure out how to dynamically change the font size? Thanks!
