Create Trimmed Adjustment Layer
Based on a user request here on aescripts, CreateTrimmedAdjustmentLayer will create a new Adjustment Layer and trim it to the range of the selected layers.
CreateSeveralTrimmedAdjustmentLayers will create an adjustment layer for each of the selected layers. The new adj layer can have a custom name defined in the User Variables section and also has the option of including the name of the layer that it’s adjusting below.

This script is gold! I also love how they are black solids. Just one more request pretty please? can you please make it so when I select more than one layer, the script creates seperate trimmed adjustment layers for those layers instead of one?
Again thank you so much for your wonderful scripts.
done!
It’s perfect! This is a massive time saver. Thanks so much!
WOW!!! you read people minds.i was waiting for that to come.
i wonder if you can come up with a script that automatically adjust the work area apone a selected layer/layers.
great job on this one body!
Thanks.
That functionality is already built in to AE:

Super useful, thanks!
Sorry, slightly off topic but, (i couldn’t find a requests section) is it possible to write a script to that adds options to your adjustment layers that let you single out what layers below it get effected? This would minimize comping greatly.
Thanks again,
