Correct answer shachar carmi

Okay let me try to explain my project again. We are designing digital signal platforms mostly roboticly controlled. We designed electro-mechanical control systems for rotating screens to GTG firm. Now we are trying to develop a software to control multi-axis display systems.To do that we want to learn how to program Adobe AE plug-in. Our first intents in Adobe AE is to create a GUI and a default template  project. Secondly we must know how to control the layers and layer properties like content, effects, transform. Also we want to manipulate the template which we have created. Such as playing with the angle of the template, height of the template extra. But the size of the template should not change so that graphical designer can design his or her content in the template. Further more we must get a xml doc for angle (and other desired changes) data next to rendered video. In the end we must have a .jsxbin format plugin. It is complicated for us but I know it is doable. We appreciate little help. I am sending a 2 pictures for better understanding. We are open to any suggestions such as education programs, consultant companies or documents which can help us to understand better.


   


ok. now i'm vertain you don't need to develop any C plug-in.

.jsxbin is the extension for an encrypted javascript file. also, i gather

now that you're not making an importer script, but rather an exporter

script.

it's very much doable, and should be quite easy, actually. once you look

into the scripting guide pdf, it should all be very clear.

also, here's a link to the AE scripting forum:

i don't understand what you're you find missing in AE.

are there no 3rd party plug-ins that would allow you to complete this

project?

if i knew what plug-in you wish to develop i could tell you what you need

as a base.

bad english is the official language on this forum. :-D

most of the people on this forum (including me) are not native english

speakers.

if i get you correctly, you already have a project on some other software,

and you want to import that project into AE.

is that correct?
