 This repo has been built over the years as the result of working on [vk.com community on AE expressions and scripts](http://vk.com/ae_exp).
 
-Some of these scripts are unfinished or may work not as expected.

+The main purpose of the repository is education, so you are free to use these scripts in any way you see fit.

 +	csvreader.jsx – an example of parsing csv file into AE comps
 +	debughelper.jsx – *unfinished* an experiment to create a text panel connected to selected properties
++	dropNthFrame.jsx – drops every Nth frame starting from a given

++	makeClosest16 – script for making comp size divisible by 16
++	newAdjust.jsx – snippet that lets you name the new Adjustment Layer before it's created
++	newTrimmedNull.jsx – creates a null trimmed to the highest selected layer

++	setColor.jsx – *I think it is used to set selected color to one of predefined colors*
++	setExpressionToPaths.jsx – sets one expression to all paths
++	setKeysForPaths.jsx – sets keyframe for all paths in a shape layer
++	setLoop.jsx – snippet for adding a time remap loop for each selected layer
++	setRoundCaps.jsx – Sets all Stroke caps to Round in all shape groups
++	shape-duplicator.jsx – *unfinished* a tool to duplicate shape layer into another group
++	sortByPosition.jsx – snippet used to sort layers depending on their position, left to right
++	textToKeys.jsx – creates hard-coded "typewriter" effect of a Text Layer with keyframes
++	trimFirstToSecond.jsx – trim First Selected layer to the second one
++	upscaleComp.jsx – script is used to rescale composition with all its contents preserving keyframes etc
