  Apply pseudo controller to a layer

  Posted by Tudor Baican on February 2, 2022 at 10:38 pm

  Hello friends,

  I’m trying to apply my pseudo controller to a layer.

  So far so good, it works but if select maybe 2 properties I get two times the the preset applied but my var myProperty is only limited to the last selection.

  Thanks for your help.

  var myProperty = app.project.activeItem.selectedProperties[mySelectedProperties.length-1];
  var myLayer = myProperty.propertyGroup(myProperty.propertyDepth);
  var myPreset = File("/myPseudoFx.ffx");
  var hasController = false;
  for(var i=1; i<=myLayer.property("Effects").numProperties; i++){
    if(myLayer.property("Effects").property(i).name == "myPseudoFx"){
      hasController = true;
    };
  };
  if(!hasController){
    myLayer.applyPreset(myPreset);
  };
