• Hello- If I have two machines (one user) do I need a floating license to run on both machines? Or can I deactivate on one to use on the other with a single license?

    Hi, you can use it on up to two computers and deactivate it at any time with the regular license.
  • Can I launch multiple Mobars? I use Kbar and I can have one bar on the top and one on the bottom. The bottom one is set for editing keyframes. The other for global launch items like Render Queue etc.

    There is an easy way to do that. Go to ScriptUI Panels folder and duplicate MoBar.jsxbin file. You can call it MoBar-2.jsxbin. Restart AE and go to the Window panel. You'll see MoBar-2 on the list. In this way, you can use separate toolsets.

  • Will you be adding the function to customize the drop downs? or at least add custom ones? 
    I would like to put my favorite presets In a drop down like the layers drop down.
    Thank you for your comment, Brandon. We were considering this feature to see if it would be helpful to users. It seems like this is a need. Our to-do list includes some essential features, but we will implement this feature at some point.
    Yes please! for me this is the number 1 feature I need, as is greatly improves organization & speed compare to switching between different workspaces.
  • Is is possible to add shortcut buttons, like:
     CTRL + Y for solid,
     CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+T for new text, etc... ?
  • Is is possible to add shortcut buttons, like:

    Hi Silus, adding a shortcut to the text layer makes sense. We're planning on adding a shortcut feature soon and we're also considering some quick tools for element creation with easy naming. We believe that by combining these two ideas, we can make things easier and faster for our users.

    Thanks for your feedback and suggestions! We'll keep you posted on any updates. If you have any other questions, just let us know!

  • Hi,

    What does the 'Start - End' adjust for the Auto Fader In and Out? Seems to affect the duration and speed of the fade, but what does the X and Y coordinates change in particular? There is no limit on what the values can be, I am a bit confused by what it does.

    I assumed it would delay the start or bring forth the fade out.

    Thanks

    Hi, the "Start - End" adjustment controls the opacity. For example if you you need to go from 0% to 50% opacity, you can set it 0,50.

  • Hey there,
    I fricking love MoBar! It changed everything and saved me so much time! Thank you. I have a feature "request":  Sometimes I encountered the situation that I have keyframes across mutliple layers that need to stay in sync. Therefore I always label them with the same color. When offsetting keyframes, it would be really could to pick an option "offset by labeled keyframes" and make use of theses "groups".

    Cheers

    Hey Jonas, thanks for your comment. We gotta go over the keyframe tools in MoBar because the recent update in After Effects messed up some features. We'll definitely keep your request in mind as we work on these tools.

  • Is there a plan to add the function of splitting text layers in the future? (like textexploder)
  • I get errors reading config.json after update lastest version.
  • Thanks for the latest update - handy additions!

    Wish:
    Could MoBar use a responsive UI variation, where buttons would automatically rearrange to multiple rows (or columns) when using a narrow/small panel?
    So having this responsive behaviour as an additional optional mode to the current horizontal / vertical switch and yes of course, this mode would only work without the tool names to the side. Thanks

  • Love the new number generator, but I have a feature request, with the custom Prefix and Suffix is it possible to have different custom prefix, at the moment they have to be the same. For example I can't write $AU5,200m it would come out as $AU5,200$AU

    Hey Suzanne, that's a good idea. We'll implement it on the next update.

  • Is there a way to customize the icons for the expressions? Right now there is only one symbol and it can be confusing.

    Will it be possible in the future to launch commands via scriptlets? Like normal ae functions as clean cache ecc?
    Hello Luca,

    Thank you for your comment. A future update will allow you to customize icons and add scriptlets.
    Hey MoBar people!
    Any news about the commands via scriptlets?
    (thanks)

    Hi Caden, this could be due to your After Effects version. Can you give it a shot with a stable After Effects version?
  • I've opened a support ticket with this, but am doubling my efforts here:

    This is constantly happening with MoBar 2. Whenever I use "Batch Comp Settings" to extend the duration of compositions and select "Update Nested Composition", the nested compositions are irretrievably blank beyond their original duration - even though if you open that precomp there is content in there for the full duration. Nothing I have tried has corrected this. HOWEVER, if I drag in the same composition as a precomp into the main composition from the Project Panel then it's fine. So I end up having to drag in all new precomps to replace the old ones, copying and pasting scale, position, masks, etc. It's a huge time waste. Let me see if I can clarify with an example:

    - MAIN COMP is 10 seconds long and contains a PRECOMP, which contains an image that is also 10 seconds long.
    - I select MAIN COMP in the Project Panel and use "Batch Comp Settings" from MoBar to extend the duration from 10 to 20 seconds. I also select the option to "Update Nested Composition"
    - MoBar informs me that it has changed 2 compositions
    - Now, MAIN COMP is 20 seconds long and contains PRECOMP which is also now 20 seconds long. BUT PRECOMP only displays the image it contains from 1-10 seconds (its original duration), and is blank in seconds 10-20.
    - If I open PRECOMP, its duration is 20 seconds and the image it contains is also 20 seconds and displays the entire time when I scrub through it. But back in MAIN COMP, the image disappears after 10 seconds.
    - Duplicating PRECOMP inside of MAIN COMP and replacing it with another instance of PRECOMP by Alt+dragging it in from the Project Panel does nothing. There is still no image after 10 sec.
    - HOWEVER if I drag in a new instance of PRECOMP from the Project Panel into MAIN COMP then the issue is resolved and the image in PRECOMP displays for the full 20 seconds. This, however, defeats the entire purpose of updating the nested comps when changing the composition duration.

    AE 2023, Windows 11. 

    PLEASE HELP. Thanks
