I tried 1.12 but that seemed to introduce new problems That's what I get for trying to rush something on Friday at the end of the day! Now it's version 1.13. And nab, that's so much for doing that. I'm going to look over your script tonight...I'm learning a lot about programming as I go, and you've...

Are you saying that you have made a change to version 1.1? Yes. I'm self taught in this programming thing, so I don't have a programmer's habits yet. I'll make a point of documenting my changes in the future, now that I know others are paying attention. : ) Thanks for adding that version #. I tried...

I was able to reproduce the bug on my end, and I noticed why it only happened once and a while. I was referring to layers by name, but if you have the "Source Name" button clicked instead of the "Layer Name" it couldn't find the layer that had the position keyframes in it (the f...

I'm curious how others will make use of this, and what their workflows are. It seemed I was one of the few people out there who preferred to start a project in the rough in AE, working out my camera moves before moving on to a 3D package. There's been many times in the past where I would give an an...

Try the same link at the top, Russ. I've added the note v1.1 to the first line. I thought I knew what caused the error in the last post, but it just dawned on me what really it was. So please try it once again and let me know if it works. It works on my end so far, using both AE 6.5, AE 8, and Maya...

I believe it is fixed now, Russ. Try downloading the file again, and tell me how it goes... I downloaded the file from the link at the top of this the forum page (http://www.urbanspaceman.net/shared/AEscripts/AE2Maya/AE_CameraToMaya.jsx). Unfortunately there is no identification of versioning, so I...

I took a shot at adding a progress bar to the script, and I've been struggling with the progressbar attribute for days now. I'm certain this is a bug, because it does not work properly in AE8. Has anyone reading this got it to work? Part of my goal was to write something that would work for AE 6.5 ...

This script is great. Really helps.

Is there a similar script around which will take any comp and crop it to the boundary of the visible layers?

Thanks,

Russ

In OSX go into System Preferences/Accounts/Login Items. Add that drive that contains your watch folder(if its not local) and the AE Render Engine. Then create a .jsx script to start watch folder mode and save the script in the Application/sAdobe After Effects CS3/Scripts/Startup Folder. Here's the ...

Are you running it on Mac or Windows? I can see the layout is a little messed up on Mac AE8, but it would be good to know how it looks on Windows before I attempt to tidy it up. It'd be great if someone could try the script on Windows AE8 and send a screenshot to me at paul.tuersley@btinternet.com ...

I've updated this script to v1.3. Along with a few minor bug fixes, I've attempted to make the text formatting work better on Windows. As I don't have a pc to test it on, I'd be grateful if someone could let me know if it's any better. I have just tried 1.3 in AE 8 and the window layout is a little...
