It’s not about saving the project, it’s about saving a file to the render queue… Here is an excerpt of the code I use…

I’m copying a bit more of the script we need, as far I can tell, only the first 2 lines are relevant

var dir = new Folder();
var newLocation = dir.saveDlg("Select a render output folder..." );

if (newLocation != null)
{
if (myShow1_1.property("sourceText").value != "")
{
HeightWidth(myComp1);
app.project.renderQueue.items.add(myComp1);
var renderIndex = app.project.renderQueue.numItems; //count the items
var qItem = app.project.renderQueue.item(renderIndex);
qItem.outputModules[1].applyTemplate("QuicktimeAnimationAlphaHD");
var curOM = qItem.outputModules[1];
curOM.file = new File(newLocation.path + "/BL_" + String(myShow1_1.property("sourceText").value)+ "_" + String(myShow1_2.property("sourceText").value) + "_" + String(myTime1_1.property("sourceText").value) + ".mov"); //rename file
}

Thanks!

I’ll look into it, but I don’t think it’s worth the pain of having to find out the trigonometry for an idea that could have been cool, but next time…

[Nicolas Plaire]

Thanks… I’ll try to see how it work [because after that, I’ll try to link that rotation speed to an audio layer].

Very helpful, thanks!

[Nicolas Plaire]

Sorry, I spoke too quickly. IT IS working. Thanks again.

Sorry going back to you, but the “Cache” box was already checked and I still don’t have a solid/null in After Effects… Anyway, I’ll start from here and make a few experiment to figure it out. Thanks!

[Nicolas Plaire]

Gnaaaah, of course! it’s so obvious. Thanks so much! Really useful.

[Nicolas Plaire]

Thanks… I’ll look into it

[Nicolas Plaire]

Wouaw! Thanx both of you, this is a very good news actually, I didn’t know that the demo version was without limitation (other than time that is!)… I’m going to try that, thank you so much! You saved my day!
