I would like to set the workarea (render-area) of a Sequence to timecode in: X and out: Y.
It looks like the set attribute [ ] of sequence block doesn't provide the workarea as an option.
Is there another way to do it, or, can it be implemented?
In ExtendScript I would expect to be implemented:
I have no idea where that Scratch-like UI in your screenshots is coming from, but here's PProPanel, setting the work area:
https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/Samples/blob/e60d6a22ef44d8eb4cca3904c35a0c050576b697/PProPanel/jsx/PPRO/Premiere.jsx#L2571
Ahhh; I thought since you were posting on Adobe's forum, you were looking for a response from Adobe. And yes, I should have recognized Automation Blocks; sorry Mathias.
DVAPR-4239719 will not be addressed until PPro has moved to UXP-based extensibility; no dates available.
Automation Blocks does not support the workarea, yet. You can set in/out but not the work area. I have just put it on my list of feature requests. 🙂
The Set Property of Sequence block of Automation Blocks 1.1.000 now actually supports properties "workarea in", "workarea out" and "workarea enabled". But note that these functions don't work reliably in Pr's scripting API (and I guess that's also the reason why they are not documented). See the API bug infos here:

Hi Bruce,
Thanks for answering the question I didn't ask. 🙂
Actually, I asked Mathias how to do this with "Automation Blocks" (it's a Première Pro plugin), not how to do it with ExtendScript. I even had the same PProPanel URL in my post. By the way, did you guys already solved the ExtrendScrip bug DVAPR-4239719, regarding this matter?

🙏 Thanks a lot. Getting and setting the work area is going to make the Send-to-mediaencoder-block more useful. Can't wait to use it. 🙂

You are welcome :.-)
In the Send to Media Encoder Block, the "range" option can be set to "in and out point". So this would be the best workflow for now, since in and out point can be set with Automation Blocks.

Hello,
I created two pull requests to document those functions:
https://github.com/docsforadobe/premiere-scripting-guide/pull/15
and
https://github.com/docsforadobe/premiere-scripting-guide/pull/14
🙂
