add layers to layer comp

[davoodice2]

hi
I create layer comp and add group layer. but when expose, just groups show. and sub layers will be hide.
how to create layer comp that store current state of layers?
and how to fix group problem?
thanks.

Code: Select all

	local doc = moho.document
	local comp = doc:AddLayerCompWithName('DV_solo')
	comp:SetAutoAddsGroupLayerChildren(true)
	comp:AutoAddChildLayers(doc)
	....
	....
	
	comp:AddLayer(MasterLayer)

Off hand, it looks like you need to pass NULL to AutoAddChildLayers, as per: https://mohoscripting.com/methods/1273

I did before. default value is NULL too. but I still have problem

Code: Select all

local doc = moho.document
	local comp = doc:AddLayerCompWithName('DV_solo')
	comp:SetAutoAddsGroupLayerChildren(true,NULL)
	comp:AutoAddChildLayers(doc)
	....
	....
	
	comp:AddLayer(MasterLayer)

	comp:SetAutoAddsGroupLayerChildren(true,NULL)
	comp:AutoAddChildLayers(doc)
	....
	....
	
	comp:AddLayer(MasterLayer)

I said to pass NULL to AutoAddChildLayers, not SetAutoAddsGroupLayerChildren.

lol. sorry .

Code: Select all

	moho.document:PrepUndo(true)
	local curLayer = moho.layer
	local doc = moho.document
	local comp = doc:AddLayerCompWithName('DV_solo')
	comp:SetAutoAddsGroupLayerChildren(true)
	comp:AutoAddChildLayers(doc,NULL)

again when I use expose to layer comp in moho , all layers will be off

this is all code.

do I write some thing else?

maybe should i used 'MohoDoc:AddLayerComp(comp)' ?!! but what is this command? how to pass comp?

[davoodice2]

Code: Select all

	moho.document:PrepUndo(true)
	local curLayer = moho.layer
	local doc = moho.document
	local comp = doc:AddLayerCompWithName('DV_solo')
	comp:SetAutoAddsGroupLayerChildren(true)
	local dsfd = comp:AutoAddChildLayers(doc,NULL)
	print(tostring(dsfd))

print returns false

Code: Select all

	moho.document:PrepUndo(true)
	local curLayer = moho.layer
	local doc = moho.document
	local comp = doc:AddLayerCompWithName('DV_solo')
	comp:SetAutoAddsGroupLayerChildren(true)
	local dsfd = comp:AutoAddChildLayers(doc,curLayer:Parent())
	print(tostring(dsfd))

I frustrated. I can pass every thing for arguments .no error. Just do Nothing. why doc should be one of args? do I access to other docs ?

You aren't adding any layers to the comp. So there's no group to have its child layers added.

I added group. But again dont work. No child added

Code: Select all

	local curLayer = moho.layer
	local doc = moho.document
	local comp = doc:AddLayerCompWithName('DV_solo')
	comp:SetAutoAddsGroupLayerChildren(true)
	comp:AddLayer(doc:Layer(0))
	comp:AutoAddChildLayers(doc, NULL)

SetAutoAddsGroupLayerChildren sets what is allowed for that comp, as per: https://mohoscripting.com/methods/1272
Then AutoAddChildLayers adds child layers only if SetAutoAddsGroupLayerChildren allows it, as per: https://mohoscripting.com/methods/1273

So comp:SetAutoAddsGroupLayerChildren(false) will not allow comp:AutoAddChildLayers(doc, NULL) to add children, but comp:SetAutoAddsGroupLayerChildren(true) will.
