  Using text source to change name of composition AFTER EFFECTS

  Posted by Abd alrahman Khankan on October 16, 2019 at 9:16 pm

  I have a project that has over 100 comps, the comps have 1 shape layer, and 2 text layers. My comps are named 1,2,3,4,5,……
  I want the comp name as one of the text layers instead of 1,2,3,…..

  Example:
  Comp 1: Text 1=Rank 5, Text 2= Motion Graphics, Shape layer.
  Comp 1 name should become “Motion Graphics” instead of 1.

  Hey Abd, not possible to achieve with expressions, only by scripting.
