Changing keyframes of a layer in multiple Comps

[Filip Vandueren]

That would need a (possibly simple), but bespoke script.
It depends on how easily you can programmatically determine the keyframe to change.

For example is it always the 2nd keyframe ?, Does the Null always have the same name, or does it always use the same ‘Solid’ as a source (which would happen if you ahve always copy pasted or duplicated it)

If it’s more a case of a human can see at a glance which keyframe it would be in the project, but a stupid computer can’t using simple rules, then it’s not possible with scripting.

Thanks for your reply…got a solution from Dan Ebberts, saved me a whole bunch of time.

The Null was called Pic Contoller. It has 3 keyframes, wanted to change the second one from 123% to 98%

function fixScale(){

var myComp;

var myLayer;

var myProp;

for (var i = 1; i <= app.project.numItems; i++){

if (app.project.item(i) instanceof CompItem){

myComp = app.project.item(i);

for (var j= 1; j <= myComp.numLayers; j++){

myLayer = myComp.layer(j);

if (myLayer.name == “Pic Controller”){

myProp = myLayer.property(“Scale”);

if (myProp.numKeys > 1){

myProp.setValueAtKey(2,[98,98]);

}

break;

}

}

}

}

}

fixScale();
