Hey Lloyd

Just tried this script in AE7 and I get an error message : Unable to execute script at line 11. Syntax error.

Any idea what could be causing that? I have a bunch of 3d layers selected in a comp that has a camera.

Hmm.. is the camera selected? There's absolutely no error checking in this script, so i would say make sure all the layers are 3D?

the script is working for me. thanks.

i tried to keyframe it and the first set works but on the 2nd set of keyframes i get an error that line 39 can't do keyframes. any idea on what to change it to to do make it keyframeable?


thanks

hey pants,

not sure i follow.. how are you applying the keyframes?

[pants]

hey lloyd,

i ran the script and then set position keys, then moved to a new time and then tried to run the script again and then it said it couldn't do the script cause of the keyframes.

i was just playing around to see if i could animate a bunch of layers really fast this way.

thanks

[lloydalvarez]

i see. unfortunately the script is not designed to work that way.
