Thanks. will give this a shot.

Someone PLEASE explain to me your methods for working with the fact that dealing with seconds for scripting is terrible. I cannot code anything involving my queue without it rendering a frame earlier than indicated by the workarea duration. Or a frame later. If you start counting frames at 1 it brea...

Thought I would share a swf I made for ScriptUI:

I should add, it doesn't work on any machine at work

var pythonPath = scriptAssetFolder.fsName + '\\jive_getProjects.pyw'; var JSONPath = prefsPath + '\\getProjects.json'; var concatString = 'start /MIN python '+ '"' + pythonPath + '" "' + JSONPath+ '"'; var external = system.callSystem("cmd.exe /c \"" + concatStrin...

okay this is a bit dense but here goes: 1. Our facility wishes to start all frame ranges at 1001. 2. I have a precomposing script that goes down and precomposes each shot. It also sets (or tries to set) the start frame of these children comps to 1001. 3. I have used: var oneThousandOneToSec = 1001 *...

Alright I figured it out: show() is what automatically invokes the layout manager. However show() does not work when creating dockable ScriptUI panels. You need to invoke the layout by calling the layout function of its layout property. In other words: w.layout.layout(); return w; this way the code ...

I have the following code: var musket = function() { var w; var title; return { init: function(thisObj){ w = (thisObj instanceof Panel) ? thisObj : new Window("palette", "Musket", undefined, {resizeable:true, orientation:'column', alignChildren:['left','top']}); w.title = w.add(&...

thanks Paul, the sort is working but I'm still left with these darn orientation problems. I guess I'll need to force the script to do the matrix multiplication by hand, for the two vectors, and find the smaller of the two angles 0 and 0n - 0 to use in a sine equation (????) so It'll looks like I'm b...

wow that is way cleaner than what I came up with. mySolid.property("Position").expression = myPosString; mySolid.property("Orientation").expression = myOrientString; var newPos = mySolid.property("Position").valueAtTime(0, false); mySolid.property("Position")....

Hello all, I have an expression I use often which I want to make a one-click script. It requires an expression on the position parameter and one on the rotation parameter. I started off by trying to not use expressions, I don't want to have expression but rather, set values. I managed to do this wit...

Thanks, makes sense!

Thanks Dan! If you don't mind, I have a few questions in regards to that solution. The first variable: var mySelectedItems = app.project.selection; Does this mean I do not have to loop through to find the selected items, but can merely summon them and their value? Also: var mySelection = mySelectedI...

hey all, I have written a new (simple) script. The purpose of this script is to take selected items in your project window and place them in their own folder named after themselves. It available on http://vidjuheffex.com/scripts/ I had an issue with the first uploaded version of the script: app.begi...

thanks!
