From a script
Every setting above can be changed by the scene's logic, by its key. Say the layer is called Calendar:
scene.set("Calendar", "size", 0.9);scene.animate("Calendar", "opacity", 0.5, 2);import { scene } from "motion";scene.set("Calendar", "size", 0.9);scene.animate("Calendar", "opacity", 0.5, 2);◆On Scene Start
ƒSet Layer SettingTarget is Layer

Parameter Namesize
Parameter Value0.9
What every layer has
Besides its own settings, every layer has its opacity, blend, placement, quick effects and an effects stack. They're listed once, on the layers page.
