setting resolutionFactor in script

[Call_Me_Hoss]

So I have a question with some seemingly conflicting information on the resolutionFactor property of a comp.

I can read the resolution factor without issue but I can't seem to set it even though the Scripting Guide seems to say it's a read/write property.

I've tried where this where, selection[i] is an app.project.selection and checked that the type is a comp:

selection[i].resolutionFactor = [1,1]
// and
selection[i].resolutionFactor[0] = 1
selection[i].resolutionFactor[1] = 1

This worked for me:

app.project.selection[0].resolutionFactor = [1,1];

Thanks so much for confirming. It looks like it was totally my fault. I walked away for the evening and came at it with fresh eyes this morning and it works as it should.

I think it might have had something to do with a conflict between the installed script and ExtendScript in VSCode. I noticed I had two differing files and perhaps I was editing the wrong one🤦‍:male_sign:. Once that was cleaned up it works as I thought it should.

Thanks again.

Log.add("Before: " + selection[i].resolutionFactor.toString()); //Before: 4,4
selection[i].resolutionFactor = [1,1];
Log.add("After: " + selection[i].resolutionFactor.toString()); //After: 1,1
