Connect Layers PRO
  • The manager needs to refresh his database, as we marked ConnectLayersPRO compatible with AE 2024 a week ago :)
    When will this be compatible with AE 2024? Right now I need to open the old version of AE to use this thing.

    Maybe the old version needs to be uninstalled first. That was the case for me.
  • Hi, Installed a trial version and testing it with a few shape layers. How to get shapes moving like in tutorial just by starting preview. Nothing moves.
  • Did you animate the objects that controls your connection? :)

  • Hi, 
    I wasnt aware that in the beginning of the Quick start guide tutorial dots were already keyframed, although 4:33 there are mention about no keyframes used. The start looked so slick so I though there are a sort of quick preview without using keyframes.

  • I understand that it's not clear enough.
    However, it wouldn't make sense if controllers created their own animation: you'd have no control over them, and therefore no control over your animation!
  • Hi I am looking to animate some ropes and it looks like connect layers pro can help me with that, but my artwork is a little stylized and I understand the plug in only works with shape layers(?), can I ask if I can still add effects like roughen edges on the shape layers, or add texture mattes when I use the plug in? Hoping to purchase it before the sale ends! Thanks
  • Hi Dixie

    It's a shape layer, you can put any other effect on it. You can link the path to a mask using expression for exemple.
    You even try before buying. The 7 days trial version is fully functional, but the number of supported layers is limited to 3 and the Add to Existing Connection option is disabled.

    Cheers.

  • Hi! Is there any way to update the connection when the layer name is changed? Especially text layers, like your example in the quick start tutorial, when I change the text, it looses the connection, so I have to scroll down all the way in your expression to change the name of the layers the chain is connected.  If I can reconnect easily or preferably automatically update the name of the layer, it would be awesome!
  • Yes
    You can fix that using a null object linked to your text layer. Connect to the null so if you change the name of the text layer it won't loose the connection.

  • Thank you so much for the suggestion. I also want to suggest to you all a website that was suggested to me by my best friend. He suggested it to me because I asked him to help me write my https://academized.com/professional-dissertation-writers dissertation. Then he shared this website with me. I used them, and I was very happy that he shared them with me. Because they are the best in terms of quality.
  • Hello! When can we expect compatibility with After Effects 2025?
  • Hi Matthew

    Sorry, I forgot to check the compatibility button for 2025. It's ok now.

  • Is there a special price for those who have purchased other MB products? Specifically Newton 4 since it works very well together. I’d like to try this in my workflow more than the 7 days trial. Very nice product btw.
