If you're talking about a preset file (.ffx), you can just apply the preset, make whatever adjustments you need in AE and then save it off as a new preset.

Hello Dan,

Is there a way to access the code of a .FFX preset? And does it require advanced knowledge with c/c++/py etc or would it be similar to dealing js/jsx/xml/json or extendscript language?

Thanks,

Youssef

I'm not aware of any way to edit a .ffx file, if that's what you're asking.

You can create and save your own custom animation presets and when you save it you get an FFX file.

FFX files are not directly editable. Dan got this one right.

Why do you even reply when you have no new information to provide?, I see you in every topic and never have I ever seen you give a useful answer/advice to anyone. God, I'm sick of you.
