rd: Slicer
Version: 2.0 Sign up to be notified by email when a new version of this script is posted
This script is used as part of the Cinematic Opening Title Redux tutorial hosted on Aetuts+
This script 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.
You can shrink each slice’s mask by increasing the Margin value (in pixels), and rounding its corners by increasing the Roundness value (percentage of half the shorter of the layer’s width or height).
Note: This version of the script requires After Effects CS3 or later. It can be used as a dockable panel by placing the script in a ScriptUI Panels subfolder of the Scripts folder, and then choosing this script from the Window menu.

This is a great script, thank you. A great improvement would include the ability to have access to all 4 sides of the margin. Top, Right, Bottom and Left. Or just the ability to set the margin differently between horizontal and vertical before executing the slice.
Thanks again, keep up the great work!

hi JD,
i’ll add custom margin control in a future version. not trivial, but seems doable. thanks for the suggestion.
