once I have the layer object,

layer.inPoint = -2;

That should set the inPoint of the layer to -2 seconds. The resulting inPoint however is 0.

I have no problem setting the inpoint of a layer to a negative value manually. When I try to do it with the script the value is simply set to zero instead.

I'll try the edittext idea, but in theory the UI simply won't update anything until the function returns. Very basic threading prin...

Hey all, I have a script that loads values from a file into keyframes in a composition. There are approximately 5000 keyframes being set. I'm new to the scriptui components, but I followed some examples and have a palette up showing a label and a start button. My problem is, when I hit start, it beg...
