[Bf-funboard] Feature proposal. paramete links

[Peter G. Kovacs]

Thank s, 

My misunderstanding, I played with the drivers, i found the "average value"
a bit confusing... And the colour channel driving was not working yet. I
know this is not the topic here, but i think I am not a stupid user,
and this is not seems easy to understand or clear to see the functions...

Sorry if it's completely out of context I don't know how many user had
problem like this. and it's probably not vital.

thanks for your time and effort,

Yep, linked duplicates or driving a property should handle this fine.

You can drive with a custom property or some other objects location for eg.

You could also animate and share the same action between all datablocks.
