This script aligns the selected layers along the x, y or z axis. Here the term ‘aligns’ must be interpreted as ‘puts next to each other’; the first selected layer serves as a reference layer and it does not move. You can align layers having different sizes. A constant offset between two adjacent layers can also be specified.

My name is Charles Bordenave and I am currently located in France. I started working with After Effects in 2005, when I was a PhD student in computer science at Montreal. My interest quickly converged to expressions and scripting. Nowadays I'm regularly hired on a freelance basis by production studios focussed on tv broadcast, cartoon animation, motion graphics or cinema. My job usually consists of developing customized automation tools for After Effects.
