About Match

Match is an After Effects extension from PENCIL Park that consolidates several expression and scripting tools into a single interface. It offers a property path tool that returns the exact, universalized path of any property with one click, built‑in easing functions for smooth in, out, and in‑and‑out transitions, and a formatter that extracts and prepares all expressions from a layer for script integration. The extension also includes an expression baker that converts expressions into keyframes to ensure consistent playback and performance. It works with all After Effects property types and lists compatibility with After Effects 2020 through 2024. Projects edited with Match remain functional without the extension installed. Version 0.1 was released on July 23, 2024.
