Yes.
And in a related subject, this, from the "Scripting Guide" documentation:
"Layer nullLayer attribute
app.project.item(index).layer(index).nullLayer
Description
The Layer nullLayer attribute is true if the layer was created as a null object, false otherwise.
Type
Boolean; read/write."
... is incorrect. The nullLayer attribute is read-only.
So is there any way to change a null to be visible (i.e., to be a "normal" solid) through scripting? By hand, we can just replace footage with the original source solid to make it visible (or, rather, visible-able). Which brings me back to the original subject line, see?
Anyone want to chime in?
p.s. happy holidays!
p.p.s. doing a nesting kludge (precomping) is already known to me ...
this whole read-only source nonsense is getting annoying

Wouldn't that be nice.thehardme wrote:Perhaps changing opacity to 100%?
A Null is not a 'normal' solid until it is replaced with a source (itself or something else); opacity changes (whether scripted or not) on a Null while its an actual Null have no effect. I think I would've tried that one ...
thanks anyway, tho
