Number of parameters depends on user input

Contributor ,

Dear AE fellows,

I have the following question.

My c++ plugin animates a user input text letter by letter.

I'd like to give the user the possibility to rotate and move each letter.

This can be done by assigning PF_ADD_POINT and PF_ADD_ANGLE to each letter in ParamsSetup function.

However, the very number of these controls depend on the user input.

Is it possible to implement such a possibility?

You can probably do it like some plug-ins do it - create the controls invisibly, then expose them when needed. Otherwise I'm not aware of any way to dynamically add or delete properties. This has been a limitation forever in AE.
