| Hi Chris,
the course is owned, promoted etc. by fxphd. But this is a great tip and I will definitely forward it to them.
Cheers, Mathias
Thanks all, that’s great. I’ll sign up for fxphd and take Mathias’ class. Just a point - Mathias - I have spent a bit of time googling for information on the ESTK and I don’t recall seeing your course pop up at all in the links. Might be worthwhile looking at tags or seo to raise the search results profile, unless that’s all down to fxphd.
I show how to use the ESTK debugger in the first classes of this Beginner Scripting course: and more in class 7 of this Advanced Scripting for Ae
For code development I also prefer Atom instead of ESTK (and show in the training how to configure Atom for that task).
Cheers, Mathias

Ya, my main pipeline is to have two dummy placeholder scripts, one in Scripts and one in ScripUI Panels. Each named something like "_FloatingTEST", and "_DockableTEST". I open one or both depending on what I'm making and launch AE. This way I can write my code in ESTK or SublimeText sometimes, and as I need to test I copy paste to one of those scripts. I then launch script in AE. This allows me to make changes on the fly and just relaunch the script without relaunching AE. It's a few extra steps, but hardly impacts my flow as I'm so use to it.

"The most useless day is that in which we do not laugh" -Charles Field Yeah, that’s what I’ve always done too. Glad it’s not just me. And the “Open script editor” has never worked for me, either...
I haven't seen any info on ESTK features. It's not very well supported.
I never use any of those features. I've gotten in the habit of using alert() and $.writeln() for temp feedback in ESTK. David Torno 818.391.6060 --------------------
"The most useless day is that in which we do not laugh" -Charles Field Hi all,I’ve been using the ExtendScript Toolkit for writing After Effects scripts (and even complex expressions) but I don’t seem to be using many of its features. I’ve had a look around online and there’s not a lot of documentation specific to After Effects. There are features listed in the documentation that I can’t get to work, such as showing the values of variables at specific times, and so on.Are there any tutorials/ documents out there that specifically demonstrate the best way to use the ESTK with After Effects?-Chris+---End of message---+To unsubscribe send any message to <ae-list-off@media-motion.tv>
