Goodparents v1.4.1

Primary Keyphrase: parenting management script

Description:
Download Goodparents v1.4.1 for After Effects on Windows and Mac, a powerful parenting management tool that simplifies layer hierarchies and streamlines your animation workflow. This essential script lets you link, unlink, and manage parenting relationships with intuitive controls—saving countless clicks when working with complex rigs and multi-layer animations.

Goodparents gives you complete control over layer hierarchies with features that make parenting effortless. Quickly parent multiple layers at once, temporarily unparent for individual adjustments while maintaining hierarchy memory, and unlink while preserving transform values. The “parent to nearest” feature automatically connects layers to their closest neighbors based on position, with adjustable thresholds for precision.

Version 1.4.1 Key Features:

• Smart Parenting: Parent multiple layers simultaneously with intelligent grouping options
• Temporary Unparenting: Unlink layers temporarily while remembering original hierarchies—perfect for making quick adjustments without losing structure
• Unparent & Keep Values: Remove parenting relationships while preserving current transform values, preventing unwanted jumps
• Parent to Nearest: Automatically parent layers to their closest neighbors based on position, with customizable threshold controls
• Move Up/Down: Quickly promote or demote layers within hierarchies for efficient organization
• Clear All Parenting: One-click removal of all parenting relationships in your composition
• v1.4.1 Update: Compatibility update for latest After Effects versions and bug fixes

Limitations, even Good Parents have some issues!

• You can’t copy Good Parents control from one layer to another: it simply won’t work, sorry
• If you copy layers with Good Parents controls from one composition to another, you will need to reset the Parent layers.
• Oh and non-uniform scale may work incorrectly. I know, the humanity! Well, unfortunately it is an After Effects bug.
