Hi,
Is it possible to make a tool for Scale compositions on the project panel with composition contents?
For example, I have 20 4K compositions, and I want to resize them to 1080p. With some scripts making scale but comp contents is not scaling correctly. Maybe Automation Blocks can help with this process.

Here is a demo video for the tool:

Yes, that should be possible as follows:

  1. change the size of the comp
  2. create a new null
  3. parent all layers which have no parent to that null
  4. scale the null down to the new size
  5. optionally: delete the null again
    I've scheduled some time for tomorrow to create some sample code.
