LICENSE
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Dataclay, LLC ("Dataclay", "we", "us" or "our") hereby grants you ("Licensee", "you" or "your") a non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable, personal and limited license to use the software product(s) specified on your order ("Order") and for which you have paid the applicable fees ("Software") only: (a) in object code, (b) for Licensee's own internal business operations, (c) in accordance with the applicable user documentation ("Documentation"), and (d) in accordance with any installation, copy, use and machine restrictions specified or referenced in the Order or Documentation including, but not limited to, license subscription term limit (including, without limitation, any trial periods), user limits, machine limits, copy limits or other limitations. For purposes of this Agreement, Licensee's internal business operations means use of the Software internally for Licensee's own business purposes and/or use of the Software in or as part of Licensee's cloud-based "software-as-a-service" applications or solutions provided or licensed to Licensee's end users. Further, the following specific license rights and limitations apply to the Software license type you acquired or purchased:
- If you acquired a Trial License, then you have the right to install, copy and use such copies of the Trial Software on an unlimited number of machines owned or controlled by you. Multiple users may use such Trial Software copies.
- If you purchased a Standard License, then you only have the right to install and use one copy of each such Standard License Software on a single machine. Multiple users may use a Standard License Software copy installed on a single machine, but not concurrently. Such Standard License Software copy may be de-installed on such single machine and reinstalled on another single machine, provided that such Standard License Software copy cannot be copied and installed and used concurrently on multiple machines. Further, this Standard License does not permit (i) the installation or use of multiple copies of a single Standard License Software copy, or (ii) the installation of a single Standard License Software copy on more than one machine at any given time, or (iii) the installation of a Standard License Software copy on a system that allows shared use of applications, or on a multi-user network, or on any configuration or system of computers that allows multiple users of such single Standard License Software copy. Multiple copy use or machine or system installation is only allowed if Licensee obtains a separate Floating License for each user and each copy of the Floating License Software for a single machine or system.
- If you purchased a Floating License, then you have the right to install one copy of such Floating License Software on a single machine or system that is accessible by multiple nodes for use by Licensee users up to the number of Floating License Software copies purchased by Licensee. Any number of Floating License Software copies purchased by Licensee may be installed on a single machine or system. Each such Floating License Software copy will be associated with the single machine or system and not with any of the nodes that access it for use by Licensee users. Such Floating License Software copy may be de-installed on such single machine or system and re-installed on another single machine or system, provided that such Floating License Software copy cannot be copied and installed and used concurrently on multiple machines or systems (other than nodes as described in this paragraph).
You may not use, copy, or install the Software on any system with more than one computer, or permit the use, copying, or installation of the Software by more than one user or on more than one computer. If you hold multiple, validly licensed copies, you may not use, copy, or install the Software on any system with more than the number of computers permitted by license, or permit the use, copying, or installation by more users, or on more computers than the number permitted by license.
You may make one archival copy of the Software. The archival copy must be on a storage medium other than a hard drive and may only be used for the reinstallation of the Software.
Licensee has no right to receive, use or examine any source code or design documentation relating to the Software. The term "Software" also includes updates, modifications or new releases of the Software and Documentation that may be provided by Dataclay to Licensee from time to time in its sole discretion or pursuant to a support and maintenance agreement with Dataclay. No rights or licenses are granted by Dataclay or its licensors under this license, expressly or by implication, with respect to any proprietary information or patent right, copyright, trade secret right or other intellectual property right owned or controlled by Dataclay or its licensors, except as expressly provided herein. Licensee's rights in the Software will be limited to those expressly granted in this Agreement. Dataclay and its licensors reserve all rights and licenses in and to the Software not expressly granted to Licensee under this Agreement. The Software and Documentation are licensed and not sold.
RESTRICTIONS
Except for one copy solely for archival purposes, copying of the Software or any portion thereof is expressly prohibited. Licensee must reproduce and include the copyright notice and any other notices that appear on the Software on any copy.
Licensee will not (and will not authorize or enable any third party to): (a) decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer or otherwise attempt to discover the source code or underlying ideas or algorithms of the Software, (b) modify, adapt, alter, translate, or create a derivative work of any part of the Software, (c) sublicense, rent, lease, distribute, sell or otherwise transfer the Software or the rights to the Software to any third party (except as expressly provided below), (d) use the Software or any results obtained from the Software for timesharing or service bureau purposes, or (e) remove any proprietary notices or labels on the Software.
Where Licensee has other rights under statute, Licensee will provide Dataclay with reasonably detailed information regarding any intended disassembly or decompilation. Licensee will not decrypt the Software unless necessary for legitimate use of the Software.

If the Software does contain Limiting Devices, then Dataclay will ensure that you receive any keys or other materials necessary to use the Software to the limits of your license.
LICENSEE DATA
If Licensee has licensed Dataclay’s Templater™ Software and is using such Software in conjunction with Dataclay’s software-as-a-service known as QUE™, then as part of the provision of the QUE service Licensee acknowledges that certain Licensee data or data files may be automatically uploaded from Templater into QUE without Licensee designating such data or data files for uploading.
LICENSE FEES
Dataclay has established its License fees based on whether or not a licensee is an Enterprise. For purposes of this Agreement “Enterprise” means an organization (including its affiliates) that meets one or more of the following criteria upon the effective date of this Agreement or upon renewal of the Software license subscription term. Licensee’s organization (including affiliates) is an Enterprise if it:
- (a) employs more than 250 individuals as employees or consultants;
- (b) has annual gross revenues of $20,000,000 or more;
- (c) intends to use the Software to auto-generate or modify more than: 1,000 videos per day; 3,000 videos per week; 10,000 videos per month; or 100,000 videos per year; and/or
- (d) is listed as a Fortune 500, Inc. 5000 company, and/or Fortune Global 500.
You represent and warrant that at the time you purchase a Software license, and upon renewal of your Software license, you have paid the applicable Software license fees that correspond to your status as an Enterprise or non-Enterprise organization based on the above criteria. You will promptly contact Dataclay to correct an incorrect designation and pay the additional license fees, if applicable.
If you are not an Enterprise at the time you purchase a Software license, but during the subscription term of the Software license you become an Enterprise, the Software license fees due by you will not increase to the Enterprise level until renewal of your Software license. Likewise, if you are an Enterprise at the time you purchase a Software license, but during the subscription term of the Software license you no longer meet the criteria for an Enterprise, the Software license fees due by you will not decrease to the non-Enterprise level until renewal of your Software license.
Licensee will conduct such internal audits as are reasonably required to verify its compliance with this Agreement and, upon Dataclay’s request from time to time, certify compliance with any Software copy, use or other restrictions, including without limitation, whether or not Licensee is an Enterprise, and provide Dataclay with such certification and supporting evidence in writing within ten business days of such request.
QUE METER CREDITS FOR DATACLAY SUITE OF PRODUCTS
As an alternative to the above License Fees section and to give you the opportunity to try all of our suite of products and services, you may elect to purchase QUE Meter credits which may be used for any Dataclay suite of products and services including Templater, QUE Services and Projector. The rules for QUE Meter credits include the following:
- You must create a QUE account
- You must purchase a perpetual Templater Rig software license
- QUE Meter credits may only be used for output as determined in Dataclay’s sole discretion
- QUE Meter credits will expire 1 year after purchase; however, if you purchase additional QUE Meter credits then the expiration date for all QUE Meter credits (the new credits as well as the existing QUE Meter credits) will be 1 year from the new QUE Meter credit purchase date
- You may only purchase and maintain the maximum number of QUE Meter credits specified on your Order
- QUE Meter requires Dataclay applications, including Templater, to run in environments with an active internet connection that can reach the que-api.dataclay.com domain.
Additional rules for QUE Meter credits may be included on your Order. In the event of a conflict between this Section and any other section of this Agreement, this Section will prevail.
TITLE AND COPYRIGHT
As between the parties, Dataclay retains all right, title, and interest, including, without limitation, all intellectual property rights in and to the Software, and any copies or portions thereof. The Software is protected by the copyright laws of the United States and international copyright treaties. Licensee's Software license confers no title or ownership and is not a sale of any rights in the Software. Third-party suppliers and licensors may protect their rights in the Software in the event of any infringement.
TERM; RENEWAL AND TERMINATION
The term of this Agreement for the Software license is the applicable perpetual or subscription term you selected when you Ordered the Software License. This Agreement is effective from the date you download the Software and will remain in force until terminated or expiration of the subscription term of your Software license (including, without limitation, any trial licenses), whichever occurs first.
If you selected a recurring Software license subscription, then your subscription term will continue to automatically renew, and you will continue to be charged applicable license fees for such subscription via your selected payment method, until and unless you terminate the recurring renewal of your Software license subscription through the termination process made available in your account. If you terminate your recurring Software license subscription, your subscription will continue in effect until the end of your paid subscription term and then terminate on that date. (For example, if your paid six-month subscription start date is on January 1 and you cancel on May 15, your subscription will continue through June 30.)
If you do not have a recurring Software license subscription, then you may terminate this Agreement at any time by destroying the Documentation and the Software (together with all copies and adaptations thereof) or by using the uninstaller function to uninstall the Software. Such termination does not relieve you of any obligation to pay any outstanding fees for the Software (e.g. for the subscription term of the Software license purchased by you).
This Agreement will automatically terminate if you breach any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement. We may also terminate this Agreement for any of the following reasons: (a) your failure to pay any applicable fees, (b) our obligation to do so by law, or (c) our decision to discontinue a Software product that is licensed to you on a subscription term basis.
Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason, you will: (a) stop using the Software, and (b) destroy the Software and the Documentation (together with all copies thereof), which may be done by using the uninstaller function to uninstall the Software.
The Agreement Sections titled “Restrictions”, “Title and Copyright”, “Limitation of Liability”, “Limited Warranty and Disclaimer”, “Open Source Software” and “General Provisions” will survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.
SUPPORT
This Agreement does not include any maintenance and/or support of the Software including, without limitation, any updates, upgrades or new versions ("Support Programs"); provided, however, that if we provide or you download or otherwise obtain in any manner any Support Programs they will become part of the Software and the terms of this Agreement will apply to such Support Programs.

DISCLAIMER
TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LOCAL LAW, THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED TO LICENSEE "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. DATACLAY SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, TITLE AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. DATACLAY SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY ACTIONS RESULTING FROM LICENSEE'S USE OF THE SOFTWARE. DATACLAY DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL MEET ALL OF LICENSEE'S REQUIREMENTS OR THAT THE USE OF THE SOFTWARE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE RESULTS AND PERFORMANCE OF THE SOFTWARE IS ASSUMED BY LICENSEE. NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION OR ADVICE GIVEN BY DATACLAY OR DATACLAY'S AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVES BEFORE CREATE A WARRANTY OR AMEND THIS WARRANTY.
Some jurisdictions do not allow exclusions of implied warranties or conditions, so the above exclusion may not apply to Licensee to the extent prohibited by such local laws. Licensee may have other rights that vary from country to country, state to state, or province to province. To the extent warranties cannot be disclaimed or excluded, they are limited to the duration of the minimum warranty period required by law.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY LOCAL LAW, DATACLAY'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ANY KIND OF LOSS, DAMAGE OR LIABILITY ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SOFTWARE OR DOCUMENTATION, UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, IS LIMITED TO THE TOTAL OF THE FEES ACTUALLY PAID BY LICENSEE TO DATACLAY HEREUNDER FOR THE SOFTWARE IN THE TWELVE-MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE DATE ON WHICH THE CAUSE OF ACTION GIVING RISE TO SUCH LIABILITY AROSE. MULTIPLE CLAIMS WILL NOT EXPAND THIS LIMITATION.
IN NO EVENT WILL DATACLAY BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SOFTWARE OR DOCUMENTATION, WHETHER BASED ON BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, PRODUCT LIABILITY, OR OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT DATACLAY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.
The limitations specified in this Limitation of Liability Section will survive and apply even if any limited remedy specified in this Agreement is found to have failed of its essential purpose.
These limitations will not apply to liability for death or personal injury resulting from Dataclay's negligence to the extent applicable law prohibits such limitation.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation may not apply to Licensee to the extent prohibited by such local laws. Only those limitations and exclusions that are lawful in your jurisdiction will apply to you and, in such instances, Dataclay's liability will be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.
Dataclay will not be liable to Licensee because of any exercise of Dataclay's right to terminate this Agreement, as provided hereunder, at law or equity for compensation, reimbursement or damages on account of any loss of prospective profits on anticipated sales or on account of expenditures, investments, leases or other commitments relating to the business or goodwill of Licensee, notwithstanding any law to the contrary.

THIS LIMITATION WILL NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY RESULTING FROM DATACLAY’S OR ITS LICENSORS’ NEGLIGENCE TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS SUCH LIMITATION.

What is Templater Bot?
Templater Bot is an enterprise solution for custom video on demand. It works as an automated system. Use it to periodically check for incoming data, pull new data in, and render video as a background process. Or use the command line interface to push data in to create new renders. Once your AE project is prepared, use The Bot or the command line interface to customize and render it without operating the After Effects user interface. Developers can create front end applications, such as web or mobile apps, that feed data into Templater's data source, offering a collaborative, custom video content creation solution.
Templater Editions
Templater is available in three separate editions—Rig, Pro, and Bot. Learn more about Templater Rig and Templater Pro on their catalog pages.
Subscription Types
Subscribe to Templater Bot on a month-to-month plan by adding this item to your cart, or choose a yearly recurring plan. Templater Rig is included with all Bot subscriptions.
Important Requirements
- Templater Bot activation and license verification requires your system to be online and connected to the Internet.
Submit a help ticket if your organization requires offline activation or floating license server support.
Why Use Templater Bot?
Sometimes you need to fully automate After Effects to handle the versioning and rendering of a master composition and then automatically distribute the output. Use Templater Bot to develop applications that can harness the power of After Effects. Reasons you might need to use Templater Bot in your organization:
- You need an efficient way to create anywhere from 15 to 15,000+ unique videos based on a data source.
- You want to automatically create a video based on web form input and run a script to upload it to a server.
- You want to integrate Templater into an existing automated production pipeline.
- You need to automatically run a script after every render job or after all render jobs are complete.
A single license of any Templater edition allows you to install and / or activate that edition on a single machine for one user. Before purchasing, you should verify that Templater will help your workflow by using it in trial mode. The trial lets you explore Templater Rig, Templater Pro and Templater Bot features with a watermark. After 30 days, all functions cease to work without a purchased license. For an additional fee, a floating license version is also available which works in conjunction with a Linux based license server. To inquire about a floating license version and server please open a support request.

It's now easier than ever to identify when errors occur
during Templater's operation and what specifically causes
those errors:
+ In Templater's connected data source, Bot will label
individual rows / jobs with an error when an output issue
occurs. Any issue locating or importing media assets causes
Templater to assign an error value to the `render-status`
property.
+ For each processed row / job, Templater logs details about
missing or corrupt media references and their corresponding
composition layers to the `templater.err` file.
+ Errors and info emitted by After Effects, regardless of
severity level, to the `templater.err` file.
+ Detailed logs are attached to each processed job in QUE for
enhanced observability and transparency.
BUG FIXES
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
+ When using the command line interface to render QUE jobs,
Templater would only process the initial page of returned
results when using the `job_filter.additional_pages`
property. Templater now processes all pages in a returned
query from QUE when using the CLI.
+ Fixed failed installation error on macOS Ventura systems
+ Fixed an issue with registering QUE Satellites on
non-English Windows installations

We are happy to introduce QUE! Moving forward QUE will be the
primary and optimal data source for Templater. QUE exposes a
REST API to leverage the full capabilities of Templater to
produce dynamic videos. QUE frees you from the scalability
constraints of traditional tabular data sources, such as
spreadsheets, which become unwieldy as the volume and
complexity of your video production needs grow. QUE supports
security measures such as data-at-rest encryption as well as
data masking for hiding personal and demographic data.
An overview of QUE can be found at
https://dataclay.com/que
Read and study QUE's API endpoints here:
https://que-api-docs.dataclay.com
Learn more about using QUE with Templater here:

+ NEW FEATURE — Spot Checking
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Spot checking lets you export still images or short video
clips of specific frames from target compositions to help
assure the quality of merged data in a batch process. Use
composition timeline markers to set which frames you want
exported, otherwise Templater exports an evenly distributed
number of frames from the target composition. Spot checking
can be performed exclusively or together with render or
replication tasks, and export data can be sent to event
scripts. Use new properties in `templater-options.json` to
invoke spot checking via the Command Line Interface.
+ NEW FEATURE — Use Expressions-based Layout Engines
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Users now have the option to turn off Templater's
auto-layout engine and Time Sculpting features. Doing this
allows users to rely on layer expressions or other custom
plugins to achieve dynamic layouts as Templater processes
your data. For example, if Templater's internal layout
engine does not suit your needs, you can disable the Layout
Engine in Templater's preferences and author your dynamic
layout using tools such as:
mamoworld's Pins & Boxes
https://dcly.io/pins-and-boxes
or
Zack Lovatt's Flex

+ IMPROVEMENT — Optimized for AE's Multi-Frame Rendering
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
The Templater Settings effect is now "thread safe" making it
optimized for AE's Multi-Frame Rendering (MFR) feature released
in 2022. Users should no longer see a yellow warning icon in
the Effects Controls for Templater Settings.
+ IMPROVEMENT — Support for Google Shared Drives
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Users can now store Google Sheets in a Shared Drive, and
Templater will be able to access those documents. Users no
longer need to explicitly share the individual Sheets with
Shared Drive members.
+ IMPROVEMENTS — Miscellaneous
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
License activation has improved messaging when it encounters
an issue. Offline activation is now accomplished using the
Templater panel.
You can now install Templater directly into After Effects Beta
application folders on both macOS and Windows.
On Windows, utility executables are now signed with a digital
certificate so that they pass anti-virus checks.
The {{off}} flag now mutes audio in addition to visually
hiding a layer.
Added support for references to JPEG File Interchange Format
(.JFIF) assets and Google WebP (.webp) formatted file assets.
Improved error messaging for missing output destination,
missing footage root, and footage importing.

WHAT'S NEW?
+ Installers are compatible with After Effects 2021
...................................................
Templater now installs to the correct directories for AE 2021
+ Image sequence support for dynamic footage layers
.....................................................
Users can reference image sequences as source media for dynamic
footage layers. Enter the path to first file in the sequence
and prefix it with a hash symbol `#`. For example, if you have
a sequence at `/ads/anim_0000.png` relative to Templater's
footage root, entering `#/ads/anim_0000.png` into your data
source lets Templater know it should import and replace it as
an image sequence. When Templater imports a sequence, it sets
the sequence's frame rate to match the rate of the currently
mapped layer source.
+ Improved network communication on Windows
...........................................
On Windows, a new, flexible, and robust network communication
library is utilized when Templater makes requests. For most
users, this will not affect behavior, but for users with tight
security protocols, special privileges might need to be granted
to this library to communicate over the network.
+ Included Output Module and Render Setting Templates
.....................................................
Templater installs two new files that assist in render setup.
The file `dataclay-output-modules.aom` contains AE Output
Module Templates and file `dataclay-render-settings.ars`
contains AE Render Settings Templates that are optimized for
Templater batch performance. Load these files using AE's "Edit
> Templates..." dialogs. On macOS, find these files in
directory "/Applications/Dataclay", and on Windows find them in
directory "C:\
+ Defaults for Output Module and Render Setting selection
.........................................................
Templater will use a default Output Module and Render Setting
Template upon clean installation to avoid errors initiating
batch processing workflows.
+ Specify a path for writing Templater's log
............................................
In Templater's Preferences dialog, within the "Advanced" group
of controls, users can now specify a path for where Templater
writes its log.
+ Improved messaging for license expiration and renewal date
............................................................
Clicking the "License Info" button in Templater's Preferences
now displays the date when the activated license will either
expire or renew.
+ Improved log messages for Templater requests to Google
........................................................
To assist users with troubleshooting, the Templater log reports
more specificity regarding requests made to Google's API.
+ Various bug fixes have been addressed
.......................................
· The correct Windows and macOS version numbers are now
reported in the log.
· Fixed recurring license expiration issue when launching
Templater via its command line interface.
· Fixed Templater's scaling logic for portrait, square, and
landscape footage sources in accordance to its containing
composition.
· Dynamic audio layers now ignore spatial layout properties.
· Fixed hard crash bug when using AE's "Add to Adobe Media
Encoder Queue" menu command w

2.7.0 -
Mar 26, 2018
................................
Before installing Templater 2.7, please be sure to read and
agree to the new terms outlined in Templater's End User
License Agreement.
+ Enhanced and robust event architecture
........................................
This much requested and much awaited feature is now
available! You can now register both shell and ExtendScript
scripts to a new set of Templater events. The new Templater
events are as follows
1. Data retrieval events : Pre-data and Post-data
2. Batch processing events : Pre-batch and Post-batch
3. Job processing events : Pre-job and Post-job
4. Layer update events : Pre-update and Post-update
5. Output events : Pre-output and Post-output
6. Bot events : On-startup and On-shutdown
Events are now also broadcast when Previewing in Pro and Bot
editions.
WARNING - READ BEFORE YOU UPDATE TEMPLATER!
If you already make use of event scripts in your application
please note that we have deprecated a preference that might
prevent your application running. As of Templater 2.7 the
preference `For all commands, use job details as arguments`
is deprecated. If using the command line interface, the
`job_detail_args` property found in the `prefs` object within
the `bot` object is also deprecated. It is now required to
explicitly append arguments to your registered shell scripts.
Apologies for any inconvenience.
+ New argument macros for registered event scripts
..................................................
A few new argument macros can be passed to event scripts
1. $log : The full path to the templater.log file
2. $log_dir : The full path to the directory containing the
templater.log file
3. $event : A string identifier that references the most
recently broadcast event
+ New ExtendScript API
......................
ExtendScript files that are registered to listen for a
Templater event you now have access to read and manipulate
Templater's internal memory. Developers can accomplish this
by using the $D object. Full documentation for this API is
available at http://support.dataclay.com
+ Improved naming of downloaded footage assets
..............................................
When the `Allow unique downloads for cloud-based assets`
preference is enabled the downloaded asset will have a more
precise identifier prepended to the downloaded file. The
prepend string includes the job's row index value, column or
property name, and ID value if available.
+ Easily troubleshoot Templater operation
.........................................
Prevent Templater from suppressing any After Effects notice,
warning, or error dialogs with a new Templater preference.
Note that dialog suppression is on by default.
+ Silence Templater logging
...........................
You can now shut off all Teplater logging from the Templater
Preference dialog. This is not recommended, but useful if you
want to improve speed for batch processes.
+ Improved memory management
............................
A new preference allows you to choose if Templater should
automatically purge After Effect's internal memory caches
after each job in a batch process. Enable this if you find
that After Effects is eating up too much memory on batch runs.
Note that enabling this preference will add a bit of time to
complete each job in a batch.
+ Open log file directly from Templater Panel
.............................................
A new button labeled "Show Log" appears within the Templater
panel. When clicked, Templater will spawn a new terminal
window displaying a real-time log of Templater's operations.
+ Help Tips display in user interface
.....................................
When you hover over specific user interface elements in
Templater's main panel and its Preferences dialog, help tips
appear to assist your learning.

Sep 16, 2017
Users can trial all functions within Templater for 30 days without
any limitation. In trial mode, watermarks are rendered atop layers
that are designated as dynamic. Users can now try out all functions
from all editions of Templater including Rig, Pro, and Bot. After
the trial period, all features in Templater cease to function.
+ Unified Licensing Framework
Licensing framework has been standardized across all Templater
builds. If you are upgrading from Templater 2.5, please read
upgrading instructions in this document first.
+ Templater Events: Bug Fixes and Improved Architecture
Previously, any post-job or post-batch event scripts registered with
Templater's replication feature were not executed properly. This
issue is now fixed making registered post-job and post-batch scripts
execute as documented. Further, the code architecture for event
scripts is prepared for implementing more events types such as:
pre-data, pre-render, pre-replicate, post-data. These will be
implemented in a future release
+ Improved Logging Header
The header in the Templater log files now show more details about
the machine running Templater. It now includes the current
username, the machine ID, and the operating system. This helps
Dataclay's support team troubleshoot customer issues.
