    Thanks JP,

    I’m glad the course has helped you.

    I don’t think we have anything specific that goes into driver deeper (yet), but there are a few lessons in various courses that show how to use drivers in different projects.

    As for python, I do go into this type of UI script a little deeper in the Rigging the Treasure chest (here).  You’ll will learn how to add the text and change the layer numbers etc.

    If you don’t know anything about python yet, I would recommend the “Scripting for Artists” tutorial series from Sybren at the Blender Studio.  (it’s on the Youtubes and the Blender Cloud)

    That is an excellent start with coding.  But with this stuff you can just start by copy, pasting and then editing stuff.  

    That way you don’t need to know much at all when you start.

    Then after a while you will be able to write your own little scripts that do something specific (like matching the data name to the object name).

    Then you’ll be able to write tools and addon etc.  But it’s a journey and you need to start at the start 😉
