Turn on “Continuously rasterize” via expressions or scripting
Hello everyone! Thanks for the great help you offer to us, self-educated AE-mateurs…
Case: I am writing a script (.jsx file) and at some point I need to convert a layer to 3D, and also activate the little “sun” aka “Continuously rasterize” icon.
I got the 3D part working by using this line of code
layer.threeDLayer = true;However I couldn’t find the keyword to activate Cont. Rast. on it
layer.contRast = ?????Any idea on how this could be done?

Like this:
layer.collapseTransformation = true;

I was betting on you to answer Dan.
Of course that worked!Don’t you guys consider this type of short/basic threads a kinda waste of cyberspace?
It would be great if there was a full scripting dictionary that merely lists keywords in alphabetical order and a few words describing what they do. Like the material you get if you search for “Javascript functions” or “full PHP keyword reference”.
Does anybody know of anything like that?

How to get same function for Comp? For example, if I just pre-composed a AVLayer and I want to get the newComp raterized automatically. Is there a way to do it?
Thank you!
var newComp = activeItem.layers.precompose([curLayer.index], curLayer.name, false);newComp.(?)

I haven’t tested it, but it should be close to this:
var oldComp = app.project.activeItem;
var newComp = oldComp.layers.precompose([curLayer.index], curLayer.name, false);
oldComp.layer(newComp.name).collapseTransformation = true;Dan

I will test it out and post the result here.
