It then removes from the folder any top-level item that is not currently selected. It also checks to make sure that, for each item in the folder, the parent is properly set to the correct folder. The comment is for the user's purpose only; it has no effect on the item's appearance or behavior. Item id attribute app.
The value of the ID remains the same when the project is saved to a file and later reloaded. However, when you import this project into another project, new IDs are assigned to all items in the imported project.

Property value attribute app. The type of value returned depends on the property value type. Property valueAtTime method app.
Note that the type of value returned is not made explicit; it will be of a different type, depending on the property evaluated. When false, return the result of evaluating the expression for the specified time.
Ignored if the property does not have an associated expression. Reference invalidation When something occurs that changes an object sufficiently for the reference to become invalid, script refer- ences to that object can generate errors. In simple cases this is straightforward. In this case, After Effects generates the "Object is Invalid" error when you subsequently reference that item or other items in the group, because their index positions have changed.
PropertyBase canSetEnabled attribute app. Generally, this is true if the user interface displays an eyeball icon for this property; it is true for all layers. PropertyBase duplicate method app. If this property is not a child of an indexed group, the method generates an exception and displays an error.
An indexed group has the type Prop e r t y Ty p e. Returns PropertyBase object. PropertyBase elided attribute app. The property is not displayed in the user interface and its child properties are not indented in the Timeline panel. PropertyBase enabled attribute app. It corresponds to the setting of the eyeball icon, if there is one; otherwise, the default is true. PropertyBase isEffect attribute app. PropertyBase isMask attribute app. PropertyBase isModified attribute app. The match name is not displayed, but you can refer to it in scripts.
Every property has a unique match-name identifier. Match names are stable from version to version regardless of the display name the name attribute value or any changes to the application. Unlike the display name, it is not localized. An indexed group may not have a name value, but always has a match Name value. An indexed group has the type Prop e r t yTy p e. PropertyBase moveTo method app.
This method is valid only for children of indexed groups; if it is not, or if the index value is not valid, the method generates an exception and displays an error. An indexed group has the type Prop e r- t yTyp e.
NOTE: Using this method invalidates existing references to other children in the same indexed group. For example, if you have three effects on a layer, each effect assigned to a different variable, moving one of the effects invalidates the references for all of these variables. You will need to reassign them. Parameters n e w In d e x The new index position at which to place this property in its group.
An integer. PropertyBase name attribute app. It is an error to set the name value if the property is not a child of an indexed group that is, a property group that has the type Prop e r t y Typ e. Type PropertyGroup object or null; read-only. PropertyBase propertyDepth attribute app. The value 0 for a layer. PropertyBase propertyGroup method app.
Parameters c ou nt Up Optional. The number of levels to ascend within the parent-child hierarchy. Default is 1, which gets the immediate parent. Returns PropertyGroup object, or null if the count reaches the containing layer.
PropertyBase propertyIndex attribute app. Effects and masks are indexed groups. For example, the masks property of a layer refers to a variable number of individual masks by index number. Layers are named groups. PropertyBase remove method app. If this is a property group, it removes the child properties as well.
This method can be called on a text animation property that is, any animator that has been set to a text layer. PropertyBase selected attribute app. Set to true to select the property, or to false to deselect it. Sampling this attribute repeatedly for a large number of properties can slow down system performance. To read the full set of selected properties of a composition or layer, use the s el e c t e d Prop e r t i e s attribute of a Comp or Layer object. It can contain Property objects and other PropertyGroup objects.
Property groups can be nested to provide a parent-child hierarchy, with a Layer object at the top root down to a single Property object, such as the mask feather of the third mask. All methods and attributes of PropertyBase, in addition to those listed below, are available when working with PropertyGroup. PropertyGroup attributes and methods are available when working with mask groups. In general, you can only add properties to an indexed group a property group that has the type Prop e r t y Ty p e.
If this method cannot create a property with the specified name, it generates an exception. To check that you can add a particular property to this group, call c an Ad d Prop e r t y before calling this method. PropertyGroup canAddProperty method app. For example, you can only add mask to a mask group. PropertyGroup numProperties attribute app. For layers, this method returns a value of 3, corresponding to the mask, effect, and motion tracker groups, which are the indexed groups within the layer.
A name specification can use the same syntax that is available with expressions. The following are all allowed and are equivalent: my l aye r. When using the name to find a property that is multiple levels down, you must make more than one call to this method. For example, the following call searches two levels down, and returns the first mask in the mask group: myL aye r.
Returns PropertyBase object or null if no child property with the specified string name is found. Attributes provide access to items in the render queue and their render status. Methods can start, pause, and stop the rendering process. The RenderQueueItem object provides access to the specific settings for an item to be rendered.
Parameters index The position index of the item. Returns RenderQueueItem object. Type RQItemCollection object; read-only. RenderQueue numItems attribute app. RenderQueue pauseRendering method app. This is the same as clicking Pause in the Render Queue panel during a render. You can call this method from an onSt atu sC hange d or onE r ror callback. Parameters p au s e True to pause a current render process, false to continue a paused render. RenderQueue render method app.
This is the same as clicking Render in the Render Queue panel. The method does not return until the render process is complete. To pause or stop the rendering process, call p au s e R e nde r i ng or stop R e nd e r i ng from an onE r ror or onSt atus C hange d callback. RenderQueue rendering attribute app. When false, it is stopped. RenderQueue showWindow method app. Parameters d o Show When true, show the Render Queue panel. When false, hide it.
RenderQueue stopRendering method app. This is the same as clicking Stop in the Render Queue panel during a render. You can call this method from an onSt atus C hange d or onE r ror callback. It provides access to the specific settings for an item to be rendered. RenderQueueItem applyTemplate method app. Parameters te mpl ate Name A string containing the name of the template to apply.
RenderQueueItem comp attribute app. To change the composition, you must delete this render-queue item and create a new one. RenderQueueItem duplicate method app. RenderQueueItem elapsedSeconds attribute app. Type Integer, or null if item has not been rendered; read-only.
RenderQueueItem logType attribute app. RenderQueueItem onStatusChanged attribute app. You cannot make changes to render queue items or to the application while rendering is in progress or paused; you can, however, use this callback to pause or stop the rendering process.

RenderQueueItem remove method app. RenderQueueItem render attribute app. When set to false, st atu s is set to RQIte m- St atus. RenderQueueItem saveAsTemplate method app. RenderQueueItem skipFrames attribute app.
Use this to do rendering tests that are faster than a full render. A value of 0 skip no frames, and results in regular rendering of all frames. A value of 1 skips every other frame. This is equivalent to "rendering on twos. The total length of time remains unchanged.
For example, if skip has a value of 1, a sequence output would have half the number of frames and in movie output, each frame would be double the duration. RenderQueueItem startTime attribute app. Type Date object, or null if the item has not started rendering; read-only. RenderQueueItem status attribute app. One of: RQIte m St atu s.
RQIte m St atu s. D ON E Rendering process for the item is complete. RenderQueueItem templates attribute app.
RenderQueueItem timeSpanDuration attribute app. The duration is determined by subtracting the start time from the end time. Setting this value is the same as setting a custom end time in the Render Settings dialog box.

The first RenderQueueItem object in the collection is at index position 1. RQItemCollection add method app. Parameters c omp The CompItem object for the composition to be added. The settings are saved in the After Effects preferences file and are persistent between application sessions.
Settings are identified by section and key within the file, and each key name is associated with a value. In the preferences file, section names are enclosed in brackets and quotation marks, and key names are listing in quotation marks below the section name.
All values are strings. You can create new settings with this object, as well as accessing existing settings. Settings getSetting method app. Parameters s e c t i onName A string containing the name of a settings section ke y Name A string containing the key name of the setting item.
Returns String. Settings saveSetting method app. Use the constructor, ne w Sh ap e , to create a new, empty Shape object, then set the attributes individually to define the shape. A shape has a set of anchor points, or vertices, and a pair of direction handles, or tangent vectors, for each anchor point.
A tangent vector in a non-RotoBezier mask determines the direction of the line that is drawn to or from an anchor point. Our camera will pan with the actor as he runs, jumps, disappears, and reappears.
The actual disappearance also includes a dynamic dissolve and warp effect. And the best part is, no third party plug-ins are required.
