This script displays a dialog box for pre-composing one or more layers (like the built-in Pre-compose dialog box), but adds the ability to trim the pre-comp to the selected layer’s duration, with optional trim handles.

Displays a palette with controls for changing the size, pixel aspect ratio, duration, and frame rate of the selected compositions, and all nested compositions (pre-comp layers) in it.

Displays a palette of the installed scripts in the selected Scripts folder (and subfolders). Only scripts with .js, .jsx, and .jsxbin extensions are displayed. Double-click a script to launch it.

This script displays a palette with controls for jumping to different times in the composition. There are buttons for jumping a specific number of frames forward or back from the current time, as well as 7 favorite buttons for capturing different times (set from the current time) and jumping to them easily.

Displays a palette with controls for slicing the selected layer into a grid. Slicing works best with non-rotated layers. If a parent null layer is created, it will be anchored at the layer’s current anchor point.

This script creates, sets, or unsets proxies for the selected footage and composition items.

Displays a palette with controls for sorting layers based on specific criteria.

Renders each of the selected layers separately. You might find this script useful if layers represent different versions of an effect or different parts of an effect that you want to render as separate “passes” for flexibility in how they get composited.

Displays a palette with controls for capturing multiple states of a composition’s layer settings, and quickly recalling any of them at a later time. You can capture and switch among up to 6 states of layer features, specifically a layer’s selection, A/V Features settings, and Switches settings.

Displays a palette with controls for slipping and sliding various layer settings, such as layer footage source, in/out range, markers, and keyframes. You can use different combinations of these settings for more powerful control over layer editing operations.

Displays a palette with controls for identifying the location of keyframes on a layer by using layer markers.
