  Rename an effect and update expressions

  Posted by Romain Cousin on October 19, 2016 at 3:39 pm

  Hi!

  I am writing a script which
  1 – write an expression on every selected properties
  2 – create a null layer
  3 – create an effect on this null (expressions are linked to the properties of this effect)

  Problem :
  4 – At the end of the script I want to rename the effect on the null layer. To correct the expressions I use an “autoFixExpressions” but it doesn’t work…
  I think After effects doesn’t evaluate / refresh the expressions until the script is finished and “autoFixExpressions” need valid expressions at some point.
  Is there a way to force expressions to refresh before renaming my effect?

  Thank you!
