Change Render Settings in a Script
Hey All,
I was able to create an item for the render queue using this syntax:
var renderItem = currentProject.renderQueue.items.add(currentComp);
How do I access the render settings of that render item and change the resolution output of the render to a third? I haven’t had any of these work:
renderItem.resolutionFactor = [.33,.33];
renderItem.renderSettings[1].resolutionFactor = [.33, .33];
renderItem.renderSettings.resolutionFactor = [.33,.33];Thanks for any help.

Access to render settings works way differently than you might expect. See “scripting access to render settings and output module settings” on this page for some code examples:

Thanks Walter. This read helped a lot.

Cheers, Geoff. Before this scripting feature was added, I used to manually build templates and distribute them to the team, then use scripting to set them as needed. That may be another option for you.
