Looks very useful! But holy crap, go easy on the inertial bounce script. I can barely read your lower thirds and titles in your demo video. Its like they're made from rubber.
How do you control the pace at which the animation unfolds (e.g. the pace at which the bars grow "up" in the bar chart)? For this one I only see a horizontal and depth expression slider.

Hi Bryan,
I think the bounce is not so much but I will care your thought if I change the video in the future.
Hi, i'm trying to contact you, are we allowed to use it in end product that has been sold? As Videohive author i would like to buy the script and produce some templates. But does our clients need to have the same script to be able to edit the charts?
Thanks - this is an awesome tool - started playing around with it, couldn't make it run with no background (meaning, transparent) - am I missing something? Much appreciated!
You can switch off visibility of background layer.
First, click the Shy Layers composition switch at the top of the Timeline panel. Now all layers will show up. At the very bottom there is a layer called BG. You can hide the BG layer by clicking the eye switch of that layer.
I just purchased your script. I was very optimistic about using it - but frankly, its very buggy. It's so buggy that I can't use for it's intended purpose.
I am trying to create a simple infographic of the number of drawings to create an animated film. The data set is very simple with only 6 fields.
At the bottom of this email are 2 screen shots of how the script is failing to render this simple graphic.
One screen shot shows the data panel (manually entered in AE) and the bar chart it rendered. Look at the date for "Inbetweens"; it is the largest data field but the bar chart renders it as 0% of the total. I spent an hour re-entering the data, restarting AE, etc, to fix it - but no luck.
So then I tried to import the data as a cvs file. The second screen shot shows how the script translated that data. As you can see it completed dropped the first field ("Pre-Viz") and misread the numbers. When clicking on the graph buttons to create a chart I get an error message about the numbers being in the wrong format.
I need to create this chart by end of this week. If you have a fix, please let me know immediately. If not, I am going to need a refund. $50 is a lot to me, and if the product is not good for its intended purpose I want a refund.
Thank you for purchasing AEInfoGraphics. I couldn't see your screenshots, so I didn't understand the issue exactly. Can you send them via email? ([email protected]).
and if you share your data with me it will be more easy to fix your issue.
I think I discovered the glitch... the script cannot handle commas in the numbers. It can render 1500 but not 1,500. When you are dealing with data, the ability to have a number like 1, 356,000 displayed with commas is a must. My graphic is more difficult to understand without the commas to display those numbers in a normal fashion.
You have a script with great potential. Definitely worth refining it.
I tested on a iMac with the same AE version and language, it worked. Could you re-download it and reinstall it again? First you should delete the old one, and restart your computer.
I just downloaded the trial and I encountered some trouble. During import it seems the UTF-8 labels are not imported. However it is possible to write UTF-8 characters into the UI-panel, though it seems the demo only allows the demo-dataset. However, when I reload the UI-panel the UTF-8 characters have disappeared again.
I also see that everything after , is truncated. The comma is used to denote decimals in the Nordic countries.
Furthermore it seems that it's only possible to see one series of data. In elections we often compare two series of data, showing the last election and the current prognosis. Any plans of supporting several series of data?
Same problem, deleted, restarted and re-installed but still getting the same error message.
Hi David,

The issue is related to the CSV parsing which is why it is only affecting certain users. If you would like to help you can open a support ticket and provide your csv file that is failing so we can test it with the new parser. Thanks everyone for their patience, you can't test for every scenario out there so sometimes we need to fix it after it's shipped.
I had downloaded the Trial as well, but could not use the script for the same "undefined" error as in the screenshot.
But I just removed the Trial and downloaded the latest version and tried again. It loads a CSV file but there is no slick graphics look in the comp and the controls that should be in the script panel are also missing. So, despite that the error is gone, the result is the same.
I have uninstalled / reinstalled After Effects 2015 to make sure the host for this script was not fouled. Thanks for trying to resolve this. It looks like a great script.
Thank you, Cihan. I removed the script. I put the script back in. This time the trial script worked, but it remembers the CSV data I had in there and — is there any way to flush that data? I had exported an Excel doc as CSV to test this.
So, I realize that I am limited to certain functionality in the Trial, but I'd like to simply enter some data in the fields provided and try it from the ground up. Do you cache the data somewhere I can clear that? Otherwise I can't see imagery in the Comp.
please can you tell me how to clear the dataTextFile.csv . I can't seem o find the correct Cachefile on my main Disk. I have recently tried importing .CSV files from Eurostat but nothing seems to work. Can you perhaps point me to some resources where I can get some statistics to try out the import CSV function.
In attach, there is a sample CSV file that you can test. If you want use your own data, you can create it in the user interface by pressing (+) button.
Hi Cihan, Thanks for geating back to me, I have bought the full license, and am still getting to grips with this great tool. I can build my data in the Interface with the (+) button, that functions great, but I really want to use the Import funtion so that I can get Data, for example Unemloyment figures, from official sources and not have to type it all in myself. Unfortunately Data from official sources are not always formatted best for use with AEInfoGraphics plug in. For example there are often Cells at the beginning of the data table which I have to delete before it works in the PlugIn, or often when no data is availble for a specific year or country most official statistical data tables will use a (-) dash or a (:) colon, which also appears to cause problems in AEInfoGraphics plug in. In Germany the comma is also used as a separator for decimal point so this seams to cause a problem in the interpretation of the csv file as well. So these things are more a problem with the CSV files than the AEInfoGraphics plug in but perhaps a few thoughts for future versions. Many thanks for this great Tool, I have to spend more time improving my abilitiy to use it well :-) All the best, cheers, Nick Oh P.S. I forgot to say I couldn't find this directory for the dataTextFile.csvon either PC or Mac?? But its not a big deal
Hi Cihan, Firstly looking forward to using this tool. My question is - can I use this over multiple(2) machines? - both being my machines (imac and laptop) > for one user - me. Thanking you in advance. Nate
Hi Cihan, Can the script be fixed to work with High DPI monitors? The UI doesn't scale properly and there is no scroll down bar so it's very difficult to access all of the options/functions currently.
just saw your plugin and love it. I would like to buy it but does it also work in the german version of after effects CC2015?
Best regards,
Sinan
