Have you looked in the PDF scripting guide provided by Adobe?

The site you mention simply looks like an export of that document.

Usage: 1.) Open After EFfects. 2.) Run JSX. 3.) Browse to your plain ascii text document. It will create a comp for you with a single text layer that will change text as the playback head moves through the timeline. NOTE: It is not really linked to the text file. It will have all the text from the f...

The pasword "scaleitdown" no longer works.

That is what the card dance effect is all about. Read up on it. Here is my workflow. Go into photoshop and create a 320x240 document. Drop all your images into that document as layers. Create a lot of layers, like around 32 or more. Make all the layers the same size as the document (320x240 or pick ...

I always find a banjo livens up the band.

Try adding a banjo to your comp.

http://maltaannon.com/ this site does not go anywhere?

Nice,

I'm going to have to try that out.

You could take a look at these scripts I found on this site. Here is one that has some code for creating a marker. http://aenhancers.com/viewtopic.php?t=543 { // define variables; var myMarker, currentLayer, chapterString; // assign currently selected item to a variable; var activeItem = app.project...

Javascript does support try and catch. I have only used that in jsx, however, not experssions. But it may be worth a try.

Code: Select all

try
{
//Access your layer code goes here
}
catch (error)
{
//If an error is thrown.
alert (error.description)
}

So I guess to scan the project window you could...

Code: Select all

n = app.project.numItems;
for (m=1; m<n; m++;)
{
if (app.project.item(m).name =="Label I am Searching For")
{
//I have found an item in the project window by name.
}
}

So,

Does app.project have a count?

Atomic

You can reference by name, like so... var myComp = app.project.activeItem; //NOTE comp must be selected in the project window. var AudioAmplitudeLayer = myComp.layer("Audio Amplitude"); Audio Amplitude is the name of a layer in my comp. Now you can refference properties of the layer like s...

I have come up with this: { // Create project if necessary var proj = app.project; if(!proj) proj = app.newProject(); try { temp = "The Audio Amplitude layer needs to be generated by After Effects prior to running this script. (Right-Click On Audio File in comp, choose Keyframe Assistant, Conve...

Sorry,

I just noticed this should be posted in the expression forum not scripts.

Feel free to move it.

I am looking for a script solution, not an expression solution.

Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone knows how to create markers based upon the pauses in an audio file.

Mainly I am working with voiceover that has silence between sections and I wanted markers generated at the start of a talking point.

Thanks
