How do you add a shape (ellipse, rectangle etc) to a shape layer via script.
Hi.
I’m new to scripts (although not expressions) and I’m struggling with some simple bits…
If I have created a shape layer by using:
var myShapeLayer = app.project.activeItem.layers.addShape();How do I then add things such as Groups and Shapes to the layer?
Thanks,

The syntax is a little tricky, but as an example, here’s how you would add an ellipse to your shape layer:
var myShapeLayerContents = myShapeLayer.property(“ADBE Root Vectors Group”);
var myShapeGroup = myShapeLayerContents.addProperty(“ADBE Vector Group”);
var myEllipse = myShapeGroup.property(“ADBE Vectors Group”).addProperty(“ADBE Vector Shape – Ellipse”);Dan
