Guys, this is fantastic.
I knew it had to be something simple, and jees, are those things frustrating when you don’t know what you’re looking for.
Chris – Script works great now, thanks. By the way I’ve used your ‘comp to UI’ script many times. Comes in really handy.

You know it’s really annoying that Adobe don’t integrate the whole scripting thing more thoroughly into ae – its so powerful. That, and the rather thin ae script guide. I think I’ve learnt more from breaking down your’s and other’s scripts than from that guide.
On that note, I was looking for a way to connect a ‘dropdownbox’ UI command with some text entry the other day, and after much research – most from the ever useful aehancers website – I found the best info from the bridge script guide that listed all of its UI commands.
Now why would I have to refer to the bridge script guide for ae UI commands ? Oh that’s right, its because the ae script guide doesn’t even cover that subject. Great.
Anywho – rant over, I’ve had trouble getting that working since the bridge javascript seems a little different than ae’s, so there might be a follow up question in the near future.

Again, many thanks,
Stephen.
