Download Calc AE V1.0.2, a handy timecode calculator panel script for After Effects that streamlines your workflow with precise time and duration calculations . This dockable panel integrates seamlessly into your workspace and automatically updates to match your active composition’s frame rate, displaying all time information in both timecode and frame number formats .

Quickly make timecode calculations without leaving Adobe After Effects. Calc AE automatically loads the comp framerate to ensure accurate results. Manually enter timecode or insert common timecode values using Timecode Assist Tools.

Calc AE eliminates the need for manual time calculations by providing one-click access to essential timing information. Simply select layers, keyframes, or markers, and instantly insert their duration or specific time values directly into your project. The panel features intuitive modifier key controls for accessing start times, end times, and navigating to calculated results .

Key Features of Calc AE V1.0.2:

• Layer Time Calculations: Insert duration from first in-point to last out-point of selected layers. Use Ctrl to insert earliest in-point time, Alt to insert last out-point time .
• Keyframe Timing: Calculate duration between first and last selected keyframes. Ctrl inserts earliest keyframe time, Alt inserts last keyframe time .
• CTI Operations: Insert current time indicator (CTI) position. Ctrl calculates duration between CTI and earliest layer in-point; Alt calculates between CTI and last layer out-point .
• Marker Analysis: Insert duration between first and last markers on selected layers (or comp markers if no layers selected). Ctrl accesses first marker time, Alt accesses last marker time .
• CTI Marker Tools: Calculate between markers on either side of CTI—Ctrl inserts time of marker left of CTI, Alt inserts time of marker right of CTI .
• Work Area Management: Insert work area duration with Ctrl for work area start, Alt for work area end .
• Value Storage System: Insert current timecode value, Ctrl to recall saved values, Alt to store current timecode for later use .
• Navigation Tools: Go To function jumps to calculated timecode results, with Ctrl/Ctrl+Alt modifiers for moving CTI left or right by result frame count .
• Real-Time Updates: Frame rate display automatically refreshes when switching between compositions .

Perfect For:

Layer(s) – Insert the duration of the selected layers from the first inpoint to the last outpoint. Ctrl – Insert the time of the earliest inpoint. Alt – Insert the time of the last outpoint.

Keyframes – Insert the selected keyframes’ duration from the first to the last. Ctrl – Insert the time of the earliest keyframe. Alt – Insert the time of the last keyframe.

CTI – Insert the time of the Current Time Indicator. Ctrl – Insert the duration between the CTI and the earliest inpoint of selected layers. Alt – Insert the duration between the CTI and the last outpoint of the selected layers.

Markers – Insert the duration between the first and last marker on selected layers. The duration between the first and last comp marker is inserted if no layers are selected. Ctrl – Insert the time of the first layer or comp marker. Alt – Insert the time of the last layer or comp marker.

CTI Markers – Insert the duration between the markers to the right and left of the CTI on selected layers. Comp markers are used if no layers are selected. Ctrl – Insert the time of the maker left of the CTI. Alt – Insert the time of the marker right of the CTI.

Work Area – Insert the duration of the comp work area. Ctrl – Insert the time of the work area start. Alt – Insert the time of the work area end.

Insert Value – Insert the current resulting timecode. Ctrl – Insert the saved timecode value. Alt – Store the current timecode value to be recalled at a later time.

Go to Time – Navigate to the resulting timecode value. Ctrl – Move the CTI to the left of the number of resulting frames. Alt – Move the CTI to the right of the number of resulting frames.
