ExtendScript and Motion Graphics / Essential Graphics

[Premiopolis]

Is there any way using ExtendScript to control the property values of Motion Graphics clips instances in the timeline? (by "Motion Graphics" I'm referring to the Motion Graphics / Essential Graphics feature introduced in PPro 2017.1)

Looking to develop the following workflow:

- Editor drops a Motion Graphics clip into the timeline.

- Assigns an instance name to the clip in the timeline (via Timeline Click > Rename)

- ExtendScript uses the instance name to control any properties in the Motion Graphics Effects -- text, slider controls, etc

Did you find a way to do this ?

Thank you!!

After editing your mogrt I successfully update text from extend script!!

Do you have any idea how to update duration of track item imported from mogrt?
