  more scripting…

  Posted by Erin Shelby on September 27, 2005 at 8:24 pm

  I have written a script that so far can import an image w/ dialog, but now I would like it to place that image on the top level of a specific comp…thanks to the cumulative help so far, I know how to select the specific comp, but how do I place it into the comp?

  or am I supposed to use the FootageItem replace(file) method?

  You need to use the layers.add() method, like this:

  myImage = myComp.layers.add(myNewFootage);
