.outPoint not updating when replacing footage
Posted: November 21st, 2007, 1:21 pm
I'm having a hard time figuring this out. I'm trying to get the outpoint of a footage layer. This works of course:
In the template I'm working on this footage is replaced with a clip of varying durations every time. The problem is that after replaced, the OLD outpoint still shows up when using the above expression. Not until I go in and scrub the outpoint of the replaced footage back and forth does the expression "update" itself.
I know I could use .duration on the footage, but sometimes the user might actually need to change the outpoint of the footage.
Thank you.
Code: Select all
comp("Comp 1").layer("replaceme.mov").outPoint;
I know I could use .duration on the footage, but sometimes the user might actually need to change the outpoint of the footage.
Thank you.
