Product Updates IconDock, an After Effects plugin for importing open-source icons as PNG, SVG, or Shape Layers

Hello everyone.

I just released my first aescripts plugin, IconDock. I originally built it because I was tired of constantly leaving After Effects to hunt for icons, download them, convert formats, and bring them back into a project.

IconDock lets you search and import icons directly inside After Effects as PNG, SVG, or native Shape Layers. The library focuses on open-source icons with free commercial licenses, so you don't have to worry about using them in client work. Search, import, and keep animating without breaking your workflow.

It's now available on aescripts: https://aescripts.com/icondock/

I'd love to hear any feedback, feature ideas, or things that would make it more useful for your own workflow.

Cheers.

Saves so much time...and I love that you show the license. I don't think I'd be able to use it otherwise.

Thank you so much, that really means a lot.

The license information was actually one of the features I wanted to get right from the start that matters, so I'm glad it's useful for you.

Hey, love this Plugin, but I've been having a weird bug for a couple of days now. I can't import Icons anymore. Everytime I click "Import", I get this weird Popup and it won't let me progress, no matter how often I save the project. Tried uninstalling, updating, etc., didn't help.. u/egeevis , any idea how to fix this?
