Thanks

Hard Connection:

connectAttr polySphere1.radius polyCylinder1.radius;


If you want to time that connection you must use driven keys:

// Set your Start Values for both Objects
setDrivenKeyframe -currentDriver polySphere1.radius polyCylinder1.radius;
// Set your End Values for both Objects
setDrivenKeyframe -currentDriver polySphere1.radius polyCylinder1.radius;


Cheerz...

Of course you can do it in the Connection Editor or in the HyperShade.
