Action Scripting for AE

[Filip Vandueren]

No…

AE outputs movies, movies don’t respond to clicks (the play button in your movieplayer does)

However, you can create markers in a track (by hitting alt-asterisk *) and enter a URL to that marker.

There are a few output-options that will use that URL when the movie is played back and you get to the frame where that marker was placed.

I believe only
File->export->Macromedia Flash (SWF)… (if you set the “include Layer marker Web Links” option)
And Quicktime

The quicktimes will only do the webjump if the movie is actually played from within a webbrowser, not when it’s played from the movieplayer…

You can write expressions to control animation, but it isn’t an interactive environment that the user can control.

If I select”include Layer marker Web Links”, how do I use them in Golive. Please help.
