Aescripts - The Positioner 1.0.0

Aescripts The Positioner v1.0.0 is a powerful and intuitive After Effects plugin designed to simplify the way motion designers position, pin, and scale layers inside their compositions. Built for speed, accuracy, and dynamic responsiveness, this tool removes the hassle of constantly adjusting layer positions as your design evolves. Every action responds automatically, allowing you to focus on animation and layout without battling unnecessary timeline or transform adjustments.

The Positioner introduces a clean, easy-to-learn user interface that gives creators the ability to quickly place layers exactly where they need them with minimal effort. Whether you're arranging UI graphics, building motion layouts, or designing animated scenes, the tool ensures everything remains properly aligned regardless of changes to size, layout, or composition structure.

One of its standout capabilities is the ability to pin layers directly to the edges of other layers or to the boundaries of the composition. This makes building responsive layouts far easier than using native AE tools. The plugin also includes a versatile Auto-Scale feature with ten different scaling modes—such as Fit, Fill, Stretch, and more—giving artists total control over how layers adapt to space and proportions. You can apply uniform padding or customize padding for each side, ensuring precision layout design from every angle.

The Positioner offers advanced scaling options that let you resize layers based on a percentage of their original width or height. Locked positions remain stable even when the composition or surrounding elements change, providing a reliable structure for complex animations. With full support for both horizontal and vertical workflows, the tool adapts seamlessly to a wide range of motion design tasks.

For creators using Box It! or other text-box animation tools, The Positioner serves as an ideal companion for positioning chat boxes, text elements, and interface graphics. It brings efficiency and consistency to layout creation while enhancing overall design flexibility.
