After Effects 2023 - ExtendScript UI Bug

Hello,

Would love help with this Adobe AE 2023 bug!

 

Problem:

I'm attempting to use Adobe's code here (under "Custom layout-manager example").

This code builds a window with a button that has a custom location in the UI.

Example here:

But when I run Adobe's code example in After Effects 2023, it crashes.

 

 

Parts of code that crashes:

// of "container" in a stair-step fashion.
function StairStepButtonLayout( container ) {
    this.initSelf( container );
}

win.buttons.layout = new StairStepButtonLayout( win.buttons );

 

Question:

How could I solve this crashing issue?

 

Thank you very much!

Hi @bretonb80955479,

You should hopefully be pleased to hear that this bug has been fixed in the new 23.6 release of After Effects, available now in the Creative Cloud app. Please let us know right away if you continue to experience this issue with your ScriptUI panel.

 

Cheers,
