Hi guys,

 

Puppet position pin tool in After Effects will dynamically add control point parameter in composition panel when adding a pin, just like the image below:

So I want to know is there a way to change parameters dynamically and just displayed in the composition panel but not the Effects Control panel.

 

Thanks

Plug-ins that do this kind of trickery simply pre-register a ton of inert property streams and show/ hide them as needed. There is no genuine dynamic adding/ removing of property streams.

Ok I know. It seams that you can only set PF_PUI_NO_ECW_UI at PF_Cmd_PARAMS_SETUP stage, but cannot change it at PF_Cmd_USER_CHANGED_PARAM stage.
