Can you add a text graphic to a sequence using ExtendScript?

Inside Premiere Pro, you can use the "Type Tool" to insert a text graphic onto a sequence. I would like to do the same action, but from an ExtendScript (.jsx). Is that possible?

Yes; see the PProPanel sample.

Yep, as Bruce points to above, adding and manipulating MOGRT elements via ExtendScript is possible, but be aware that the API is only designed to support MOGRT elements built in After Effects ... unfortunately it doesn't support native Adobe Premiere MOGRTs.

Is this still true, that ExtendScript manipulation of MOGRT elements is only for MOGRT elements built in AE?

I'm working on manipulating a MOGRT element built in PPro and if it's not possible I'd like to know before I keep working on it.

I think Andy may have it inverted; PPro .mogrts should work.

What does your testing show?
