From a script

Every setting above can be changed by the scene's logic, by its key. Say the layer is called Now playing:

scene.set("Now playing", "size", 0.2);scene.animate("Now playing", "opacity", 0.5, 2);
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.
