How to integrate one buton in the project panel shell ?

[Guest]

Hello guys,

I work with Adobe After Effects CC 2017 Win SDK,

I've made homemade Imigration plugin​ in c++ for my team,

and I need to add on button into the project panel shell like Cineware_AE_Exporter.aex.

Which suite, or method could give me the possibility to do that ?

Use the PF_ADD_BUTTON macro in ParamsSetup. Details on PF_Param_BUTTON on page 75 of the SDK Guide.

I don't use Effect Plugin, I have AEGP plugin.

I need to use PF function with AEGP to add a simple button into the After Effect ui ?

I just want to add another button with generic function behind.

Ah OK I see. This is a menu item, so you should use the AEGP_COMMANDSUITE1 and AEGP_REGISTERSUITE5. I believe there are example AEGPs in the samples that add menu items like this.

Thx, I found AEGP_Menu_IMPORT and it's perfect.
