Do you have a specific thread in mind? I can’t seem to find anything about it searching the forum archives.

Thanks,

You wanted some interface suggestions so here they are.

First, I find that you have to select the position property and mask element before you run the script a little unintuitive. I think you should keep that functionality, but also include a drop down menus “select layer, select mask” and select layer, select property.

Second, I find having to click next vertex or previous vertex cumbersome, especially if you are using the script repeatedly to link a number of vertices to a number of points. Again, you could keep those buttons, but add the functionality to select the vertex by number (numbers starting with the first vertex created, then counting clockwise along the mask).

Third, delete the guide when the script is over.

My Fourth suggestion is tougher, and has as much to do with functionality as interface. I would like to be able to link multiple vertices to multiple points with one run of the script. You could do this by creating a sort of project window for links.

Fifth, related to the fourth, I would like to be able to save this list of links as a file, and reload it and run the script again if I make updates to my points.

Those are my suggestions.

The last two are toughies, I know. Thanks for the script as is. If you make any updates to it, let me know. I would love to test it out.

Wow! Am I glad I stumbled onto this thread. I have been wanting this functionality for years! Great script! The interface is a little cumbersome. I would love it if the vertex’s motion stayed linked with via expression rather than being key framed. If those two things were fixed, it would be perfect. Not sure if the second one is possilbe. Please post any updates you do.

Kudos and Thanks for the script,
