Introduction to Writing Scripts

In Part 4 and Part 5 of this tutorial you will learn how to apply effects and expressions to existing layers using Javascript. The result is designed to handle large numbers of pictures with a randomly created offset, so that they form a wall when the created slider is 0 and disperse in Z-space when increasing the slider value. The script will also have a user interface, so you can use it on any number of layers, without changing the source code.

    Agree … please post final script – however you digitized the screencast left it quite hard to actually read.

    Also, as you asked – the symbol -> [b]‘[/b] is, in fact called either an “apostrophe” or “single quote.” In the syntax that you used it, the term “single quote” is the most appropriate.

    HOWEVER – the symbol -> [b]}[/b] is NOT called “curly bracket” in the english language. It is called a “brace.” And even the modifier “curly” is not needed because there is ONLY one kind of brace (the curly kind) and no other. [i][Jeffery Way gets away with continually calling them "curly braces" because... well, he's Jeffrey][/i]

      Sorry, I guess nettuts doesn’t use standard [bb] codes, and I can’t find a way to edit it. The ‘ and the } should be bolded and the last sentence italicized.

    Hi,

    i downloaded the project but get a lot of errors, first missing a ) at line 32 and the some error on line 12.
