Is there some way to read the MIXER status of a layer? Like MIXER 1-1 INFO.

I’m trying to make a parallax diorama: [https://nl.pinterest.com/pin/589056826255821324/](https://nl.pinterest.com/pin/589056826255821324/)

Where I can zoom in and out with a “camera”, but actually i’m just scaling and transforming layers.  
I add a mixer to each layer with Defer and then start them all together with the Commit command.

That works perfectly, but say I animate (mixer) from 0.3 to 0.6 in 500 frm when it reaches 0.6 I want to animate back to 0.3. So it bounces between those 2 points.

Following works

```auto
mixer 1-1 fill
[2022-12-07 14:37:01.323] [info] Received message from Console: mixer 1-1 fill\r\n
#201 MIXER OK
0.000000 0.000000 1.000000 1.000000

```
