How to move script into window

Hi,

 

I learnt here ( in adobe community, from an expert) that I can save script in notepad adding ' extension .jsx' . and use that from File- Script- Run script file. Is there any way I can move that into Ae window panel and keep that floating like other tool/plugin in my customize workspace? OR that is possible only for commercial plugins/tool?

 

Thank you.

For scripts to show up in the Window menu, you have to put them in AE's ScriptUI Panels folder, which, for Mac, is at: After Effects/Scripts/ScriptUI Panels and for Windows, is at: After Effects/Support Files/Scripts/ScriptUI Panels.
