Oops! Sorry for the inconvenience, I think, I had addressed the problem wrongly. Here is actual problem (really).

1 var shapeLayer = pipComp.layers.addShape();
2 var contents = shapeLayer.property("ADBE Root Vectors Group");
3 var shapeRect = contents.addProperty("ADBE Vector Shape - Rect");
4 var shapeFill = contents.addProperty("ADBE Vector Graphic - Fill");
5 var rectSize = shapeRect.property("ADBE Vector Rect Size");
6 var rectPosition = shapeRect.property("ADBE Vector Rect Position");
7 var rectRoundness = shapeRect.property("ADBE Vector Rect Roundness");
8 rectSize.setValue ([600, 400]);
9 rectPosition.setValue([0.0, -90]);
10 rectRoundness.setValue(10);
11 pipComp.layers[2].trackMatteType = TrackMatteType.ALPHA

ESTK throws error at the 5th line of above code snippet. And the error is “Objects is invalid”.
The purpose of line 5 to 10 is to change the values of the shape layer.

Thanks in advance!

Having a another doubt in the same project that I am working on!

Now, its for a shape layer which will be the track matte for the layer below it.

I have created a shape layer and added a rectangle using the code below.

var shapeLayer = pipComp.layers.addShape();
var contents = shapeLayer.property("ADBE Root Vectors Group");
shapeRect = contents.addProperty("ADBE Vector Shape - Rect");

Now, to make this as a track matte for the layer below it, the shape layer should have a fill property. So, when I added a Fill property to the shape layer by using this shapeFill = contents.addProperty("ADBE Vector Graphic - Fill"); line of code below the above lines of code, the ESTK throws an error at this particular line stating, “Object is invalid”.

But if I place the shapeFill line above the shapeRect line, it works fine as it creates a shape layer with Fill and Rectangle property one after another. But we need the Rectangle property in the top so that the Fill property will be visible.

I hope I explained my situation clearly. kindly, help me to crack this out.

Thanks in advance.

Don’t know what you are exactly asking for. Try Clicking this icon for toggling between transparency. To identify the icon, I have highlighted it with a red circle in the screenshot below.
