KM - RecRig

Introducing KM_RecRig - an easy-to-use After Effects script that helps to create a rig for animating rectangles inside your shape layers.

KM_RecRig applies expressions to the size, position, and roundness properties of a parametric rectangle. This script will also add slider expression controls to help separate the x and y parameters of your size property.

All of this with the click of a few buttons!

It's always such a pain trying to keep track of the pseudo anchor point on parametric shape groups in AE. Whether it be working with lower thirds, titles, or even shapes themselves, being able to easily control where your text box is animating from is a real power-move.

No more trying to animate an offset amount. No more fumbling trying to remember confusing expressions. No more time wasted searching for that one YouTube video with the answer.

The dock-able script provides the smoothest experience if you’re using all of the features at once, as the window will close when you click any of the buttons to run a function.

*NOTE: This tool is not used on the position property in the transform controls of a shape group.

Notable features include:

  • Dock-able and easy-to-navigate UI.
  • Ability to add slider controls to your shape layer to separate x and y parameters of your shape’s size property. Furthermore, you can link your size property to those sliders you added for easy edit-ability.
  • Easily update the expression on the Position property on the parametric shape group to choose where you’d like your “Anchor Point” to be positioned.
  • Ability to add an expression to the Roundness parameter in the parametric shape group to maintain the roundness ratio when animating you shape.
