Serves me right for only skimming Jeff's message!

This workaround's been floating around on aehancers/the Cow for a while -- http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/227/10710 -- haven't had to use it, so I can't guarantee it'll work in later versions but worth a try!

hi phil,

as of CS6, there's an openInViewer() method that you can use for a CompItem (to open in the Composition panel), AVLayer (to open in the Layer panel), or FootageItem (to open in the Footage panel).

see the CS6 Scripting Guide for more details:

Hi, I have a script that duplicates the current comp, then does a bunch of stuff.

I can't get the new comp to open via the script.

I want the new comp to be the current timeline.

Any ideas?

Cheers.

Phil
