  • Is the trial version fully working? Whenever I run the ExpressionUniversalizer in trial mode, I get this message: "Finito! Universalized 0 effect references".
    But my project is full of color linking expressions like this:
    comp("_StyleControl").layer("ColorAndStyle").effect("Stroke Color")("Farbe")

    I'll buy the full license when I'm sure it works for me.

    I have a similar issue. I am trying to translate the effect "Advanced Lighting" to French AE and it just doesn't change anything. Still appears as "Advanced Lighting" when the French version of that effect is "Eclairs élaborés". I am manually going through and just changing it to the actual effect and property index value, but I purchased this script to avoid doing this.

    Am I doing something inccorect? I just hit the universalize button for the entire project.

    First make sure you are using the latest version of ExpressionUniversalizer.
    Then make sure your expressions are written in the same language that you AE install is running in. So for example if you are using AE in English then the expressions need to be written in English
    If you still need assistance please open a support ticket and include a reduced version of your project that has the expression that is not being universalized: https://aescripts.com/contact/?product_id=1604&direct=1 ;

    Hello,

    I tried this and still no luck. I have submitted a support ticket with an AE attached.

    Thanks! 
  • What happens when I am sent a project and I can't go to that project to execute the script? 
    I received a project and when I open it I get an expression error, how can I solve this problem if I can't go to that project to execute the script? thanks.

    The author of the project needs to run ExpressionUniversalizer before they send it to you.

  • its possible to reverse or revert a expression back to its original state, say if i have preset that has had ExpressionUniversalizer applied. can i go back to the original state?

    Sure, just turn on the log and the log will record the old and new expression so you can just copy and paste the old expression if necessary.

    Thanks, but I'm looking to reverse a saved AE animation preset that has over 100 lines of expressions that have been "universalized"  - back to its stage before I have run the ExpressionUniversalizer - theres no log.

    Without a log you won't be able to reverse it. But in any case, reversing the universalization is not something EU is designed to do, just revert to the non-universalized version of the project.
