Re: Destabilize Layer
You could just duplicate the comp with stabilized layer / camera combo. In first one turn off camera, treat as normal 2D stabilized layer. In second comp turn on camera, drag other comp into this comp, make it a 3D layer. It's really just the same thing anyway. But here's my old script so you have b...

Re: Destabilize Layer
Hi Jonas, I actually do this differently these days. Stabilize the layer, make it a 3D layer, add a camera and parent the camera to the layer. When the camera is off the layer will appear stabilized. When the camera is on it will be non-stabilized. Any other layers you add, as long as you enable the...

Re: formating "alert" text
Hi bkan, I don't think you can do this in the regular alert function. It is possible to script your own custom version of an alert/confirm dialog, in which you would have more control over the font styles, but it's a lot of extra work which I wouldn't think is really worth it just to allow bold and ...

Re: Add Animator to text layer
Assuming you have a comp open with a text layer as the first layer: var activeItem = app.project.activeItem; var theTextLayer = activeItem.layer(1); var textAnimGroup = theTextLayer.property("ADBE Text Properties").property("ADBE Text Animators"); var theTextAnimator = textAnimGr...

Re: Off for rendering?
Hi Scribling, There is a lot less traffic these days and I'm too busy to check in regularly, but it's not completely abandoned! I'm not aware of anything that could automatically turn off expressions during rendering. The only thing I can suggest is using my pt_ExpressEdit script to disabled all exp...

Re: pt_CropPrecomps (formerly Crop Layer Sets)
Yes, that's correct. It's only looking at the bounding box so it won't work if your layers are imported as document sized. If it were to scan for pixels it could end up being incredibly slow, depending on how well it could be optimised. It's a great script that I use all the time. But I'm just curio...

Re: Extract keyframes from audio without opening the composi
The script has to open the comp because of this line: app.executeCommand(app.findMenuCommandId("Convert Audio to Keyframes")); This command is used to select the menu item for converting audio as there is no scripting specific command for this. But it requires the comp to be open as it wou...

Something like this: i1 = thisComp.layer("Layer 1").inPoint; o1 = thisComp.layer("Layer 1").inPoint+4; i2= thisComp.layer("Layer 1").outPoint-4; o2 = thisComp.layer("Layer 1").outPoint; if (time <= o1) linear(time, i1, o1, key(1).value, key(2).value); else if ...

Re: Rename file when import
You mean you want to rename it in the project? The item object, which is the base object for all items in the project panel, has a name attribute which is read/write, so that should just be:
importImg.name = "myName";
importImg.name = "myName";

Re: how to make arrayOfValues parameter for setValuesAtTimes
1) would i use the same type as function findMaskProperty?, IE: return maskKeyValue; } catch(e) { return -1; I'd advise you to remove all the try/catches. They should only be used when you have no other option than to try something that could fail. There's nothing here that should need it so I just...

Re: how to make arrayOfValues parameter for setValuesAtTimes
Well yes, in your readShowMaskKeys function you're defining a local instance of the variable vals and you aren't returning it. In fact you're not returning anything to the variable maskKeyValue that is reading the result of that function. But then I don't know if it's supposed to be returning to tha...

So what is it that you want to do? Please explain the specifics. Do you have hundreds of masks that you want to paste into a single shape path as keyframes? Do you have hundreds of mask keyframes on a single mask that you want to paste into multiple shape paths? Do you want the script to create the ...

Re: how to make arrayOfValues parameter for setValuesAtTimes
Well in truth it looks like there's so much wrong with that script it's hard to know where to start. It would be easier to start from the working script that does the opposite, assuming it does work. A few suggestions: Firstly, do you realise that only shape layers that contain a 'Path' property can...
