Composition

class Composition

Parent class: Object

Represents an composition.

The Composition object’s methods and members are directly available in the console and in comp scripts written in Lua. This means that you can simply type ==CurrentTime or call AddTool(“Blur”) without the need to prefix the command with comp. Python scripts have to use the full name.
