Accesing 1st and 2nd keyframe of a mask from selected layer
Hello everyone i just started scripting with ExtendScript ToolKit and i’m in need of some direction.
I’m trying to write a script that collects the vertices of a mask from the 1st keyframe and 2nd keyframe.
*Assume the layer is selected and a layer holds at least 2 keyframes and is a rectangle.
Here is my code so far, it’s lacking the most important part and this is where i need your help 🙂
var project = app.project
var currentComp = project.activeItem
var selectedLayers = currentComp.selectedLayers
var myLayer = selectedLayers[0]
var layerIn = myLayer.inPoint
var layerOut = myLayer.outPoint
var selectedMask = myLayer.Masks(“Mask”)
var newMaskShape = selectedMask.property(“maskShape”)
var newShape = newMaskShape.value
var shapeVert = newShape.vertices
/// Find a way to select 2nd keyframe vertices
Thanks in advance !

Don’t forget semi-colons to end your statements.
I modified your code a bit. Here’s how I’d get those vertices:
var project = app.project;
var currentComp = project.activeItem;
var selectedLayers = currentComp.selectedLayers;
var myLayer = selectedLayers[0];
var layerIn = myLayer.inPoint;
var layerOut = myLayer.outPoint;
var maskPathProp = myLayer.mask("Mask 1").maskPath;
var vertices1 = maskPathProp.keyValue(1).vertices;
var vertices2 = maskPathProp.keyValue(2).vertices;
alert(vertices1);
alert(vertices2);

Hey Walter thanks for putting the time to help me!
Yeah i forgot about the semi-colons.. Also this is more elegant than my code, i’m going to use it.
Thanks
