Shape layer property customization via ExtendScript
Hi, I have to access the size position and roundness values of a shape layer so that I can change those values to the ones I desire.
The code snippet I tries is:
var shapeLayer = pipComp.layers.addShape(); // adding a shape layer to the pipComp
var contents = shapeLayer.property("ADBE Root Vectors Group"); // Accessing the contents of the shape layer
var shapeRect = contents.addProperty("ADBE Vector Shape - Rect"); // Adding a rectangle to the shape layer
var shapeFill = contents.addProperty("ADBE Vector Graphic - Fill");
var rectSize = shapeLayer.property("ADBE Vector Rect Size");
var rectPosition = shapeLayer.property("ADBE Vector Rect Position");
var rectRoundness = shapeLayer.property("ADBE Vector Rect Roundness");
rectSize.setValue([600, 400]);
rectPosition.setValue([0.0, -90]);
rectRoundness.setValue(10);ESTK throws an error stating, “null is not an object” at this line
rectSize.setValue([600, 400]);and the code terminates execution. How can I solve this to achieve what I am looking for. Kindly, Help!!
Thanks in advance,

This should work:
var pipComp = app.project.activeItem;
var shapeLayer = pipComp.layers.addShape(); // adding a shape layer to the pipComp
var contents = shapeLayer.property(“ADBE Root Vectors Group”); // Accessing the contents of the shape layer
var shapeRect = contents.addProperty(“ADBE Vector Shape – Rect”); // Adding a rectangle to the shape layer
var shapeFill = contents.addProperty(“ADBE Vector Graphic – Fill”);
shapeRect = contents.property(“ADBE Vector Shape – Rect”); // adding fill invalidates shapeRect
var rectSize = shapeRect.property(“ADBE Vector Rect Size”);
var rectPosition = shapeRect.property(“ADBE Vector Rect Position”);
var rectRoundness = shapeRect.property(“ADBE Vector Rect Roundness”);
rectSize.setValue([600, 400]);
rectPosition.setValue([0.0, -90]);
rectRoundness.setValue(10);Dan

Does anyone know how to put this path in a group object so I can transform it with the group transforms. I’m trying to set the position of it.
var sVerts= [[-4.66796875,-4.614013671875],[-4.66796875,-1.584716796875],[4.701171875,-1.584716796875],[8.44921875,1.823486328125],[8.44921875,3.798095703125],[4.701171875,7.206298828125],[-4.66796875,7.206298828125],[-8.44921875,3.798095703125],[-8.44921875,3.387939453125],[-5.3125,2.809814453125],[-5.3125,4.512939453125],[5.283203125,4.512939453125],[5.283203125,1.208251953125],[-4.048828125,1.208251953125],[-7.833984375,-2.199462890625],[-7.833984375,-3.797607421875],[-4.048828125,-7.206298828125],[4.498046875,-7.206298828125],[8.283203125,-4.072998046875],[8.283203125,-3.729248046875],[5.248046875,-3.082275390625],[5.248046875,-4.614013671875]];

sShape.outTangents = sOTans;
sShape.closed = true;sShapeGroup.property(1).property("ADBE Vector Shape").setValue(sShape);
