aenhancers

Hi all,

I am a technical artist and recently I need to help compositing. I found myself spending lot of time right-click, go to effect, and then Level, Curve, or some effects that I frequently used. In the shortcut file I can't see any about this. I can't find any command to create effect, or I could make it into UI with buttons to speed things up.

No idea at all. Please help.

If you are using alot of time the same effects on layers, you can create an animation preset, then you'll just have to drag & drop it from the preset panel onto the layers you need.

Or you can create a script, and tell him to apply an effect on each selected layers for exemple.

For that you'll need some javascript skills, and a deep look at thoses pdfs:

The After CS3 scripting guide: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/aftereffects/ for everything related to AE
The Adobe Bridge CS4 JavaScript Reference: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/bridge/ for everything related to UI & OS interaction (the pdf is inside the SDK)
