About Flip Aspect Ratio

Flip Aspect Ratio is a script for Adobe After Effects that exchanges a composition’s width and height. Users select one or multiple compositions either directly in the timeline or via the project panel, then press the Flip button to swap dimensions. A Settings panel allows selection of the scaling method and whether to fit the original composition to the new width or height, giving control over how existing layers adjust after the flip. The script has been tested on After Effects CS6 and later, with listed compatibility covering versions from CS6 through After Effects 2025. Version 1.0 was released in September 2023. A demo video demonstrates its operation.
