Global quality switch to Draft?

Is there a script to globally control the quality switch of all layers in all (selected) comps?
I'm dying with a 4K project and would like to turn everything to Draft quality while I'm assembling layers together (without having to open every comp and flick all the switches)

I think this will work:
Code: Select all
var myComps = app.project.selection;
var myComp;
for (var i = 0; i < myComps.length; i++){
myComp = myComps[i];
if (! (myComp instanceof CompItem)) continue;
for (var j = 1; j <= myComp.numLayers; j++){
try{
myComp.layer(j).quality = LayerQuality.DRAFT;
}catch(err){
}
}
}

Would it be a big deal to add code for it to work on nested comps too?

That's a little trickier, but I think this works:
Code: Select all
var myComps = app.project.selection;
var myComp;
for (var i = 0; i < myComps.length; i++){
myComp = myComps[i];
if (myComp instanceof CompItem){
setLayers(myComp);
}
}
function setLayers(theComp){
for (var i = 1; i <= theComp.numLayers; i++){
try{
theComp.layer(i).quality = LayerQuality.DRAFT;
}catch(err){
continue;
}
if (theComp.layer(i).source instanceof CompItem){
setLayers(theComp.layer(i).source);
}
}
}
