Hi,

It’s been a while, but this worked great.

Thank you

Hi all,

I have two linear expressions like this

compLength = thisComp.duration;
linear(time, inPoint, 1.2, [-1035.6667], [-2655.907]);  

linear(time, compLength + .2, compLength - 1, -2655.907, -7500);

The first one changes the z parameter for the beginning of the comp, and the second one changes the end. But for some reason, only the second expression…

I’m trying something similar with having the checking script creating an alert box that AHK waits for, but it’s still pretty buggy.

Thanks for the help

It’s a jsxbin.

I’m using AHK to handle the first script because it uses a GUI, and doesn’t have a headless mode. The script takes anywhere from 5 to 120 seconds to run, and I don’t want to set a delay of 2 minutes before each time AHK runs my script (it’s a loop of about 60 projects which will delay it significantly).

I do know that the comp FINAL 2…

Thank you. I’m still fairly new to scripting and programming in general, so I’m working off other bits of after effects scripts and JavaScript that I find.

I figured an endless loop would cause issues. Is there a way to run a loop every 3 seconds so as to prevent that freeze from happening?

My scenario is like this. I have a third party script…

Hi all,

I’m trying to create loop that keeps checking if a comp exists. I want the loop to keep running until the comp exists, and once the comp is found run the rest of the script.

So far I have a basic for loop, but it doesn’t seem to be doing anything

for (var i=0 ; i<app.project.numItems.length; i ++)

if (app.project.item(i). name != “FINAL…

Can the AEP already exist in the watch folder, and then after the script creates the comp and saves the project, the watch folder will take it from there?

Where is this script created, in After Effects or Media Encoder? I’m not familiar with how a script in Encoder would work (where to place it etc.)

How do you create such a setup with a .aep file in a watch folder, that every time a comp is created in the root folder, it is automatically rendered in AME?
