From After Effects 2020(17.0), the displayName that can be obtained by the script is garbled in Japanese.
In addition, there are other issues

  • Japanese cannot be specified by app.findCommandId.
  • The characters are garbled in aerender.

Please fix it.

First, I'm very sorry this has taken so long to address!

You are quite right, this is incorrect behavior.

You will be happy to know that these issues have both been fixed, and will be included in the next Beta release.

This problem has not been fixed as of 2020 (17.5).
Also, the beta version hasn't fixed it.
I am in great trouble because the error displayed in Japanese is garbled and unreadable.
Since aerender is also garbled, it is not possible to find out what the error is.

Due to this issue, 2020 cannot be used for work.
Please fix it as soon as possible.

Hi cafeny,

Thank you for filing this report. Is the displayNamee issue new to the 17.0 version of After Effects or does the script return garbled displayNames in previous versions as well?

 

For the additional issues, please provide:

  • More details and ideally a script snippet which reproduces the issue in app.findCommandId()
  • Steps to reproduce the garbled characters in aerender, as well as OS verison, OS language, and app language.

 

Thank you for any additional information,

- John, After Effects Engineering

Hi John,

Is the displayNamee issue new to the 17.0 version of After Effects or does the script return garbled displayNames in previous versions as well?

Only after2020.

Left is 2020(17.0~), Right is 2019(16.1).

 

alert(app.findMenuCommandId("コンポジション設定(T)..."));

2019 return "2007", but 2020 return "0", inJapanese version.

 

Thank you.
