After Effects Script: Distribute Markers
Posted on | July 28, 2009 | No Comments
After Effects is a dream. But it also misses some very basic functionality when it comes to markers. Flash programmers and video guru’s that edit for the web will use markers often for setting cuepoints in flv’s. When it comes to markers, Adobe has implemented functionality for adding one marker, editting one marker, or deleting all markers. That’s it! No selection of several markers, dragging them all at once, and most certainly not distributing them, the feature I was looking for.
Luckily, almost all Adobe software is programmable through scripting. So here’s a jsx script that takes the first and last markers in a layer and redistributes all markers in between, so they have an even time spacing.
Hope this saves you some time!
update: mind you; this will only work on layer markers, not on composition markers.
