Automation Blocks - Adding Effect Preset

Question

I'm creating a script that involves adding an effect to a clip. I found the Execute_Code_Examples_Pr.xml block, which has nearly what I need.

Is there a way to modify the 'add effect to clip' block so I can add my personal Effects PRESETS? Simply using the name of the preset in the effectName variable doesn't work.

Cheers

Sam

That should be possible with the Set Clip Parameter block.

The dropdown in that block, which lists the available parameters, won't contain all attributes of all possible effects by default. But you can simply select a clip in the timeline, to which this effect is applied and click the "refresh" icon next to the dropdown. This will update the dropdown to contain all parameters of the selected clip (see Clip Param block). default

Hi Sam,Bruce Bullis knows everything about the scripting engine and he says that there is no way to apply custom presets via scripting, unfortunately:https://community.adobe.com/t5/premiere-pro-discussions/extendscript-import-effect-preset-file/td-p/10848271
