Can I start an animation from a different layout?

So what I am saying is I made a shop where you can customize the player. I attached the customization to the player in an different animation frame so when they would equip the customization like a helmet or something, the animation frame would change to that specific frame with the same customization. I am not sure if anyone can follow this so to shorten the question, I want to know if it is possible to change the animation frame of a object that is not in the current layout to a certain other frame.

It is not possible to assign it to another layout in the way I think you mean it. However if the player object is global, it will affect all layouts if you change the animation frame for the player.

You can mark the player object as global in the properties panel in the top, that might be what you need. However that also mean that the player is available on all layouts, so might create some problems that you didn't expect
