    I’m on Windows, and I worked on Mac for a few months until November. I may be biased but I like working on Windows much better.

    As far as the move to Creative Cloud, I like the move. I think it makes the applications more affordable and I really like where Adobe is going with it. Well worth the price in my opinion.

    I keep seeing advantages to node-based compositing but I haven’t ever seen a clear comparison as to the speed of rendering between something like Nuke/Fusion amd After Effects.

    Not yet. I don’t see any good particle simulation examples. Though I do see that it has that feature on the Black Magic website.

    There is no need to be insulting. The model is the Netgear ProSafe XS708E.

    Thank you so much!!

    Any chance you know how to access the anchor point of a layer in script? I can’t find any help online, and since it’s two words, I’m having trouble.

    Hello, I was wondering how I can add an expression to an Audio Amplitude null through scripting. I want to add a smooth expression to the “Both Channels” slider effect of the null.

    Hi. I’m trying to automate a process at work and you seem to have exactly what I need but I can’t get it to work.

    var selectedItems = app.project.selection;
    var bodyComp = app.project.items[1];
    var mouthComp = app.project.items[2];

    for (var i = 0; i < selectedItems.length; i++) {
    var compName = selectedItems[i].name.substr(0,(selectedItems[i].name.length - 4));
    var myComp = app.project.items.addComp(compName,1080,1920,1,1920,24);
    myComp.layers.add(selectedItems[i]);
    myComp.layers.add(bodyComp);
    myComp.layers.add(mouthComp);
    myComp.layer(1).timeRemapEnabled = true;

    //myComp.layer(1).timeRemap.expression = "A =
    }

    for (var i = 0;

    I'm trying to create compositions based on selected voice over tracks, rename the composition by the name of the VO minus the extension name, then import two pre-made compositions "Body Comp" and "Mouth Comp", as well the VO track themselves. The next part is what I'm having problems with.

    I'm trying to get an audio amplitude null out of the audio track in each composition and then apply an expression to the time remap property (which I've successfully enabled) on the mouth loop composition. Trying to run the code out of the loop worked fine for one composition, but trying to do so for all the compositions gave me an error, saying that a ")" is expected after

    app.project.item(i).layer(3).selected = true;

    Any suggestions?

    <code />var selectedItems = app.project.selection;
    var bodyComp = app.project.items[1];
    var mouthComp = app.project.items[2];

    for (var i = 0; i &lt; selectedItems.length; i++) {
    var compName = selectedItems[i].name.substr(0,(selectedItems[i].name.length - 4));
    var myComp = app.project.items.addComp(compName,1080,1920,1,1920,24);
    myComp.layers.add(selectedItems[i]);
    myComp.layers.add(bodyComp);
    myComp.layers.add(mouthComp);
    myComp.layer(1).timeRemapEnabled = true;

    //myComp.layer(1).timeRemap.expression = "A =
    }

    for (var i = 0; <selectedItems.length; i++) {
    if (app.project.item(i) instanceof compItem)
    app.project.item(i).openInViewer();
    app.project.item(i).layer(3).selected = true;
    app.executeCommand(app.findMenuCommandId("Convert Audio to Keyframes"));
    }
