Aescripts Flow for After Effects

About this release

Flow does one job and does it faster than anything built into the host application. Select keyframes, open the panel, drag a curve or click a preset, and the easing is applied. What used to mean opening the graph editor, hunting for the right handle, dragging it a fraction too far and undoing is a two second operation that can be repeated across an entire composition.

The curve library is the reason it stays open all day. Standard easing shapes are there, the classic motion curves that most commercial animation is built from are there, and any curve you draw yourself can be saved with a name and reused. Curves can be shared as files, which means a team can work from one motion vocabulary instead of each animator easing by feel.

It applies across property types without special handling. Position, scale, rotation, opacity, effect sliders, mask paths and shape properties all take the same curve, and multi property selections take it in one action. That consistency is what makes a sequence of animated elements feel like it was designed rather than assembled.

The panel is a small dockable window that sits beside the timeline, so it does not take over the workspace. Keyboard shortcuts apply the last used curve without touching the panel at all, which is how most people end up working after the first week.

What it does

Visual curve editing

Drag the easing curve directly in a small panel rather than hunting for handles in the graph editor.

Preset library

Standard and classic motion curves included, with any custom curve saveable and nameable.

Shareable curves

Export and import curve sets so a whole team animates from the same motion vocabulary.

Works on every property type

Position, scale, rotation, opacity, effect controls, masks and shape properties all accept the same curve.

Multi property application

Apply one curve across a whole selection of keyframes and layers in a single action.

Keyboard driven

Shortcuts reapply the last curve without opening the panel at all.

Changed in this version

• Compatibility updated for the current host application generation.
• Curve library reorganised with folders and search.
• Faster application across very large keyframe selections.
• Panel redraw improved on high density displays.
• Fixed handling of keyframes with mixed interpolation types.

System requirements
