SelectorString

Source:

The selectorString has 3 expression types:

  • type
  • props
  • pseudo

Type

The type of object to find, one of:

  • item: Finds items in the project panel
  • activecomp: Finds the active composition
  • comp/composition: Finds CompItems
  • layer: Finds Layers
  • propertygroup/propgrp/propgroup: Finds property groups
  • prop/property: Finds properties`
  • effect: Finds effects property groups
  • key: Finds keyframes on properties. Returns aeq.Key objects

The types can be chained after each other, but must be in the order above, but all of them are optional. Only the objects of the last specified type will be returned.

Type is the only expression type that is required. All other expression types are optional.

Props

written right after the type, without a space, and inside square brackes ([ ]). The props are a list attribute names and values, separated by =. The objects must have an attribute with the specified value to qualify as a match. Attributes are separated by a space.

Pseudo

Psoudo are a bit like props but start with a colon, :, followed by a keyword specifying how the attributes should match. The attributes are placed inside parenthesis ().

The keywords that are currently supported are:

  • :is(): all attributes must match.
  • :has(): same as :is()
  • :not(): objects should not have any attributes matching the props.
  • :isnot(): same as :not()

Psoudo selectors can be chained.

Type:
  • String
