This script marks specific frames in an animation, adds a note to each marked frame and save the list as xml.
The script is quite useful when juggling scenes and need to keep track of requiered changes, or team members need to share info among them.
The list will not be saved with the scene, it needs to be saved externally as xml to be used when re-opening the scene.

TrackBarMarkers XML AE v2.1.6 :

  • New AfterEffects script which imports and exports xml.

    • Sort

    Known bug : When the script is loaded for the first time, the windiw and layout may appear all messed up. Adjust the window size, close and re-open, all should be ok.

    v0.6b :

  • Added an AfterEffects script to import the markers into AfterEffects.
  • Replaced Goto with Sort.
  • Updated the code and the XML structure.
  • Fixed a code bug where the list is cleared when [Load] is cancelled.

    • Known bug : Sometimes it creates doubles of marked frames with Notes.

    Next :

  • Currently working on exporting the XML from After Effects back to Max.

    • v0.5 :

  • Add markers while in playback mode.
  • Add / Edit Notes.
  • Save/Load markers' list as .xml file.
