Too many sliders, pseudo effect?

I created a script involving expressions and sliders but it adds more than 20 sliders to the layer.
I was thinking of making it a pseudo effect instead so the sliders are more organized, but AFAIK effects can't add expressions?

Looking for advice.

Thanks,
Matt

My general workflow in this situation:

  • Create the pseudoeffect however you normally would

  • Apply it to a layer temporarily

  • Add the expressions to other properties in the pseudoeffect, if needed

  • Save the expression-rigged pseudoeffect as a ffx

  • From your script, apply the rigged pseudoeffect to your layers

  • From your script, add in any supplemental expressions that need to target that pseudoeffect
