Shift

Shift in

This script will shift a layer to start at the start/end point of another layer. This is a great script if you for example have a background video (with variable length) and an outro. For the outro to start at the end of the background video you will apply the shift in script to the outro layer and pin it to the endPoint of the background video.

These are the options for the shift in script:

  • Shift target - name of the layer that is a shift layer.
  • Shifts to - where to shift this layer in-point (start).
  • Shift overlap - the overlap of this layer and the target layer in frames.

Shift out

This script will shift a layer to end at the start/end point of another layer. This is a great script if you for example have a background video (with variable length) and an intro. For the intro to end at the start of the background video you will apply the shift out script to the intro layer and pin it to the startPoint of the background video.

These are the options for the shift out script:

  • Shift target - name of the layer that is a shift layer.
  • Shifts to - where to shift this layer out-point (end).
  • Shift overlap - the overlap of this layer and the target layer in frames.
