CEP6.1 for After Effects and node.js changes?

[tardigrade01]

I was sent this article about the CEP6.1 release affecting node.js stuff for code that interacts with Photoshop.

Does anyone know if or when this update will affect scripting for AE?

I believe CEP has already been updated with the AE 13.6 release, but I would let Victoria speak on that as she is much more versed in CEP than I.

David,

Thanks for your response. When we upgraded to CC2015.1 with CEP6.1, it did indeed broke our extension until we added the node-enabling features Davide Barranca laid out in his article, and that took care of things.

Good to hear. I did pass along the info to Victoria and Bruce at Adobe. I'm sure everyone is working hard to fix things.

Much appreciated. The good news is that we tested using our extension with CC2015 after updating the code, and it still worked, which was a relief in terms of not needing our entire user base to update AE all at once.

Etiquette question: I don't want to give myself forum points by marking my own response as the correct answer (although I answered my own question). Is there another way to mark this issue closed?

[David Torno]

As far as I know just mark your response as the answer. Technically it is. I don't think there is anything wrong with that.

Okay, done, thanks
