I'm new to AE scripting, and I'm looking for a way to retrieve the auto-orientation setting for a camera layer (Off, Orient Along Path, Orient Towards Point of Interest).

Based on this thread (viewtopic.php?t=181&highlight=orientation), it seems like the auto-orientation setting is not an easily accessible attribute, at least not with JS. Since that thread is a couple years old, I just wanted to make sure that's still the case. I can't find anything helpful in scripting guide.

Thanks, all!

An autoOrient layer attribute has been added for CS3 and does appear to work for cameras.

Thanks so much, Dan. I guess I'll hold off until we upgrade to CS3, then.
