Text Inspector Module.

Section Rows (compositing, transform, etc.) have the following properties:

• enabled - (cp.ui.CheckBox) Indicates if the section is enabled.
• toggle - (cp.ui.Button) Will toggle the Hide/Show button.
• reset - (cp.ui.Button) Will reset the contents of the section.
• expanded - (cp.prop ) Get/sets whether the section is expanded.

Property Rows depend on the type of property:

Menu Property:

• value - (cp.ui.PopUpButton) The current value of the property.

Slider Property:

• value - (cp.ui.Slider) The current value of the property.

XY Property:

• x - (cp.ui.TextField) The current 'X' value.
• y - (cp.ui.TextField) The current 'Y' value.

CheckBox Property:

• value - (cp.ui.CheckBox) The currently value.

For example:

local text = fcp.inspector.text
-- Menu Property:
text:compositing():blendMode():value("Subtract")
-- Slider Property:
text:compositing():opacity():value(50.0)
-- XY Property:
text:transform():position():x(-10.0)
-- CheckBox property:
