    Hi Jacob, does it work with shape layers ?

    As long as you precompose it first it will work with anything :)

    Hi Jacob,
    Just purchased Bend Layers for the most recent update of AE CC (12.2.1.5). The script only precomposes my layer and doesn't create any additional layers or a nullController. Are you experiencing this issue with the new update for AE?

    hmmm... I don't see it here but I'm atm I'm away and only have access to a mac but in a few days I will be back home and have a PC to try it out with.

    Any fix to the script for mac users. Using AE CS6 and AE CC and it only creates a pre comp. Please hurry would really like to use this script!

    UPDATE:

    Got it working, check the layer to be 3D Bam! Awesome script!

    Please make sure your layers are all 3D layers.

    Like Lloyd said, make sure the layers are in 3D. I will release an update later today to fix this problem.

    Is there anyway to use this plug-in on a 2-sided layer?
  • Jacob DanellJacob Danell
    Good idéa. I have added it to my todo-list. It's a long list so it might take a while but it's there :)

    Loving bend layers, I've used it on 2 jobs now.  A couple of small suggestions:  
    Could you automate shy switches for all of the precomps please.  I don't really need to see these, just the master controller.  Also it automatically enables audio for all the precomps.  If I have audio on on my master layer then it would be amplified exponentially for all of the precomps. perhaps checkboxes for 'shying' precomps and audio would do the trick.

    my 2 cents.

    cheers,
    simon

    This looks awesome but I wanted to make sure it would work for pages in a book I'm making.  I downloaded the "try" version but when I try to run the script I get this error:  

    Unable to execute script at line 1. Expected: ;

    Any thoughts?

    Hello,

    Just bought your wonderful script.
    Can you suggest how to use it with double sides

    Hi! It's on my todo-list. I'm looking into how it would be possible in the most easy way. Can't really tell when it would be possible to code and release

    Hi, is it possible that the bended layer casts some shadows?
    Thanks.

    Hi! Yes, if you enable shadowns on your light the bended layer should cast shadows

    hey, is it possible to keyframe the "amount of bend" slider? When I do so, the layer does not bend unfortunately

    Hi. 
    I have been testing it today and its great for a lot of what I need it for. I do mock ups for big screens that have bends and to save time using AE and not C4D, There is only one question before I buy. Can you change where the bend starts? When I try and I think I got the tutorials it always starts from the left of the comp. But often the bend on the screens I use starts like 70% to the right. Can I move the point where it starts to bend?
