This script will create two different media instead of one media and one subclip because I found that I can't seem to create subclips of media generators. See the bolded part of the code, once I comment out the second line, the script will throw an error saying that the media is invalid.

@jetdv Is it possible to create a subclip of generators? If not, things are going to get a little tricky...

Plus: If you use Titles & Text instead of (Legacy) Text or other text plugins, we'll be able to change its parameters via script, so I recommend using it.

Ho @zzzzzz9125 Thanks for Thinking about this idea.

I use Subclip to be able to place VideoFX that affect several events at the same time without affecting the original media (it's the only way to color the edge of the 3D text without affecting the original media, for example) And using Sublip as a resource, this extrusion can be done in other media, such as .PNG, Nested Projects, Alpha .MOV and other Generated Media.

We can think about a script that can be triggered when the event is already created and selected on the timeline, and then the script just automates this sequence of actions that I described.

@jetdv I hoje wich something can be done about put the subclip step on the Script ^^

You might try following this (ignoring the "reverse" part):

@jetdv I've tried, using the following code:

Media sc = new Subclip(project, pluginMedia.FilePath, vEvent.ActiveTake.Offset, vEvent.Length, false, null);

pluginMedia is a generator media, whose FilePath only has its name and doesn't contain any possible real path. Subclip, on the other hand, seems to only look for the media in the true path when created, and cannot find the generator media. When I used the above code, it assumed that the Subclip media was invalid. If I change pluginMedia to any real media, it works. So I don't think I can create subclips on generator media.

jetdv wrote on 7/25/2024, 9:58 AM

@zzzzzz9125 It appears you are correct as there is no "file path" for a media generator. I tested a couple of options here but the sub-clip was not created. There was no error - but there was no sub-clip either.

In every event from track 2 down, I see there are TWO takes which means you've still got the original Titles and Text copied on each one as well the sub-clip copied. Why do you need the second take? Tracks 2 down only need to be the subclip.

I can't really solve the generator's subclip problem. For general media files, it can accomplish the task directly without manually creating subclips. For generator media, it requires you to create subclips before running the script.

The script also has a built-in method to copy the media generator, as a test only, not recommended for use in projects.

However, the limitations of copying are too great. For OFX plugins, it can copy all plugin parameters; For DXT plugins, it requires you to save a preset in advance, otherwise you can only use the default default. Also, the copied won't change synchronously with the original ones. So it's still recommended that you manually create subclips in advance.

In every event from track 2 down, I see there are TWO takes which means you've still got the original Titles and Text copied on each one as well the sub-clip copied. Why do you need the second take? Tracks 2 down only need to be the subclip.

@jetdv I added the subclip take to the selected event, then copied this event to another track, and finally switched the take of the selected event back. I think it's convenient in the code, and I didn't remove the extra takes. After all, the final goal was just to show the required takes.

When the user collapses the track group and leave one event at the top, they can choose not to expand the track group, but directly switch the event's take to the subclip, so they can access the subclip's Media FX too.

@zzzzzz9125
It worked perfectly here, and the warning to manually generate a subclip for Generated Media is great; it makes everything very clear.

I tested it to the limit here, and it worked with different media.

Thank you very much for your efforts and for bringing this idea to life.

It turned out excellent for a 1-Click Script tool.

I believe that for an evolution of this script, having more control over the extrusion would involve having a version of the script with a window to define values.

- A Rate value to choose the spacing between the tracks in the Z-position, to controlling the "density" of the extrusion.
(Will help to extrusion fits in Thiny Fonts)

- A value for the number of tracks to control the depth size of the extrusion.
And, if it's possible, I've never seen anything like it, can you guys tell me...
- A way in this same window, choose the Border color

Of course, this might make the project quite heavy and slow to render the preview, but it would be a great option to have more control over the appearance of our "3D object".

The script works wonderfully. Thank you very much! A color picker would not be bad.

@editeiro @snibchi1 Updated script. Now it has a pop-up window where you can enter values and choose colors.

The Fade value gradually reduces the opacity of the generated events linearly.

Some other things have also been improved, such as track groups can always collapse (the old one failed to). Now you can use the script again for events that have already been generated once, which will clean up the old events and tracks.
