Super simple script that distributes layers in 3D space within set ranges

You can download the script here http://aescripts.com/tag/3d-layer-distributor/

Hey Lloyd

Just tried this script in AE7 and I get an error message : Unable to execute script at line 11. Syntax error.

Any idea what could be causing that? I have a bunch of 3d layers selected in a comp that has a camera.

Hmm.. is the camera selected? There's absolutely no error checking in this script, so i would say make sure all the layers are 3D?

hey lloyd,

i ran the script and then set position keys, then moved to a new time and then tried to run the script again and then it said it couldn't do the script cause of the keyframes.

i was just playing around to see if i could animate a bunch of layers really fast this way.

thanks
