Of course I knew…Or maybe much just “Ctrl + D” duplicate it, that much more earier..
But that’s not the answer i am searching for.
If Nulls just unique like shape layer, why after effects put it into a project panel…

Maybe the question and the answer are just meaningless, but just like…Scientific spirit 😛

The only way that I found to help is reduce the project…Means that if I put too many files inside project window will slow it down.

But it played fine on Macbook pro (Lower spec) even thought I haven’t reduce the project.

sigh…

And I’am working on PC window 10, After Effects cc2017.

[Clifford Li]

Thank you for your reply.
But I just tried, not working as well.
And I tried the old way like this, and it worked.

button.onClick = function(){

var theComp = app.project.activeItem;
var StrokeASolid = theComp.layers.addSolid([0, 0, 0], “StrokeA Main”,1920, 1080, 1.0, 20);
StrokeASolid.blendingMode = BlendingMode.ADD;
var StrokeAFx = File(“C:/Program Files/Adobe/Adobe After Effects CC 2017/Support Files/Scripts/StrokeAMain.ffx”);
StrokeASolid.applyPreset(StrokeAFx);

}

Thats why I am wondering….. 🙁

I moved the .ffx inside script folder
And put File($.fileName).path into my script like this.

var theComp = app.project.activeItem;
var StrokeASolid = theComp.layers.addSolid([0, 0, 0], “StrokeA Main”,1920, 1080, 1.0, 20);
var StrokeAFx = File($.fileName).path + “/” + “StrokeAMain.ffx”
StrokeASolid.applyPreset(StrokeAFx);

But not working, anything I missed or did wrong??
