Interpolation. Click that little triangle next to the pickwhip, then select Interpolation, and you'll see the forms (or see Help Files).

Anyway, if you trying to have the Z position (depth) to range from 2500 to 3500 as the opacity varies from 0 to 100 (I'm guessing that's what you want) then this would be an expression that works (on position):

x = position[0];
y = position[1];
z = linear(opacity, 0, 100, 2500, 3500);
[x, y, z]

So that third line is saying as the opacity varies from 0 to 100, then interpolate the z to be from 2500 to 3500. Linear is straigh proportional, and there are Ease form if that's what you want.

Is that what you want?
