Aescripts vertex-tool v1.1.2 Free Download

Features

• 12 rounding algorithms,
• Target one specific vertex, or all vertices of multiple selected shapes at once,
• Set the rounding value by pixels or percent,
• Option to animate from the initial state to modified,
• Remove rounding of the corners with the Find intersection point option,
• Live coordinates of the vertex in focus (including in/out tangents),
• Set custom tangents for all or selected vertex,
• Store/restore shape data,

How it works

Select a Path or Mask property (or multiple layers that contain them) and launch the script. Select Target: All when applying rounding method to all vertices of your shape or use Target: One to act on one specified vertex. If second method is used, a target object will appear in the composition, that represents vertex in focus. Use buttons < and > to navigate to your vertex of choice (Shift + click and Cmd + click skips predefined number of vertices) or enter vertex number manually.

Enter rounding value and choose Radius or Percentage method. If rounding value is greater than the distance between selected and two neighboring vertices, then the minimum distance between neighboring vertices will be used as rounding value.

If you are going to transition from original shape to rounded one, then enable Animate option and set morphing duration in frames. This will ensure that transition goes as smooth as possible. Failing to enable this checkbox will result in weird, wonky and undesired transformation.

Do not forget to make a copy of your shape when dealing with complex shapes. Store Shape Data options does similar thing – it reads shape data (position of all vertices and in/out tangents) and stores it in expression field. Later, if you need to restore original shape, you can do so with “Restore Shape” button. Original shape and keyframe will be created at time, at witch it was recorded.

Click on an icon of your choice to apply default method (green stroke). Use CMD (Mac) or Ctrl (Win) to apply alternative shape (yellow stroke).

Set Custom Vertex Coordinates will open up a dialog where you can specify coordinates for selected vertex. You can also define in/out tangents and choose either Layer Space or Screen Space coordinates system.
