  • Batch Rename Layers with Current Timecode

    Posted by Ryan Vitter on November 25, 2010 at 10:11 pm

    Hey all,
    I’ve got about 100 layers in a comp that I need to batch rename with their current timecode appended to their layer name so that I can keep track of everything when I precomp them. i.e.:

    Layer 1
    Layer 2
    Layer 3

    ->

    00;00;01 Layer 1
    00;00;07 Layer 2
    00;00;13 Layer 3

    Can someone walk me through this? I know this is going to be a .jsx script rather than an expression, but I think this is the most appropriate forum.
