Re: How Do I control layer visibility?
Doble click on the layer you want to turn to invisibility, and in the properties of the layer, you have a check box for the visibility that you can animate in the timeline once you turn it on. Other way, e right click on the layer, and a small short cut apeares were you turn on or off visibility.

Re: How Do I control layer visibility?
or, keep "visibility" on and change opacity to 0...
But make sure you have "allow animated layer effects" checked!

necroposting to leave a note here in case I forget this and need to go searching:
Oh damn, making a smart bone dial that controls the opacity of layers is working really nicely. I have a 'near' and 'behind' copy of each limb's layer, and made a 6-frame smart bone that goes from 0-90º, with 0%/100% opacity keys on frames 0/3/6. The far limb's tinted darker, so it fades nicely as I fiddle with the dial to bring it over and under the body.
I've gotta make one for each limb; future me may want to consider writing (or finding?) a script to generate those opacity keys automatically.
Thanks, folks!
