Mixed Corner Radius for Rectangle Shape Layers. Individual Corner Radii

Advocate ,

Request: 

 

Would love to be able to parametrically adjust the corner radius of individual corners of rounded rectangles in AE. Similar to illustrator / figma.  

 

I know this can be done through scripting / expressions, but would love to see native controls to create shapes like this. Would simplify things greatly.  Example from figma:

There's a pre-installed Animation Preset for this - 2D Text Box (Shape).

Hi Roland! Thats cool, I still think it should be a native feature of the rectangle shape, but this looks like a good stop-gap. 

 

For some reason though when I apply that effect it doesn't work it is giving me an expression error:

I think the preset might be broken.

Nevermind, I had my project set to legacy expression mode, it works now.

A limitaion of the preset is you can't individually round each corner, only turn roundness on / off for each corner. Ideally you could set each corner so this is still a bit limited.
