Changing the Trim Path style in a script?
Hey, i am writing a script that makes keyframe and a trim path effect for multiple shape layers. I am almost done but can’t find a way to change the trim patch style from simultaneously, as its set by default, to individually. Is there any way?
I tried it with this but didn’t work:
var trimStyle = layers[i].property(“Contents”).property(1).property(“Contents”).property(“Trim Paths 1”).property(“ADBE Vector Trim Type”)
trimStyle.addproperty(“Trim Multiple Shapes”)
Any ideas?
//My Script:
var comp = app.project.activeItem;
var layers = comp.selectedLayers;
if (layers.length == 0) {
alert(“You must select a layer”);
} else {
for (var i = 0; i < layers.length; i++) {
if (layers[i] instanceof ShapeLayer) {
var propertyOne = layers[i].property(“ADBE Root Vectors Group”).property(1).property(“ADBE Vectors Group”)
propertyOne.addProperty(“ADBE Vector Filter – Trim”)
var trimStart = layers[i].property(“Contents”).property(1).property(“Contents”).property(“Trim Paths 1”).property(“Start”);
trimStart.setValueAtTime(0, 0);
trimStart.setValueAtTime(2, 100);
trimStart.setTemporalEaseAtKey(1, [ease1]);
trimStart.setTemporalEaseAtKey(2, [ease1]);
var trimEnd = layers[i].property(“Contents”).property(1).property(“Contents”).property(“Trim Paths 1”).property(“End”);
trimEnd.setValueAtTime(0, 0);
//tired it with this but doesnt work…
//var trimStyle = layers[i].property(“Contents”).property(1).property(“Contents”).property(“Trim Paths 1”).property(“ADBE Vector Trim Type”)
//trimStyle.addproperty(“Trim Multiple Shapes”)
var propertyTwo = layers[i].property(“ADBE Root Vectors Group”).property(2).property(“ADBE Vector Transform Group”).property(“ADBE Vector Group Opacity”)
propertyTwo.setValueAtTime(0, 0);
propertyTwo.setValueAtTime(2, 20);
propertyTwo.setTemporalEaseAtKey(1, [ease1]);
propertyTwo.setTemporalEaseAtKey(2, [ease1]);
var propertyThree = layers[i].property(“ADBE Root Vectors Group”).property(3).property(“ADBE Vector Transform Group”).property(“ADBE Vector Group Opacity”)
propertyThree.setValueAtTime(0.8, 0);
propertyThree.setValueAtTime(2, 100);
propertyThree.setTemporalEaseAtKey(1, [ease1]);
propertyThree.setTemporalEaseAtKey(2, [ease1]);
}
}
}

This quick test worked for me:
app.project.activeItem.layer(1).property("ADBE Root Vectors Group").property("ADBE Vector Filter - Trim").property("ADBE Vector Trim Type").setValue(2); -
Thank you very much! It works.
Also thank you for all the work you do on this forum! I red some posts of yours answering other people’s question and could learn from that!
