Assistant: Matrix Creator.

Matrix Creator specializes in creating grids or walls of layers. Use this tool to create a uniform wall of images, like teh eever-requested video wall, by taking advantage of simple palette controls.

How it works.

The Matrix Creator is very easy to set up. Specify the size of the grid, decide how large you want the grid space, then choose the orientation and a few cosmetic settings. Click Apply. You're finished!

Want to make more than a simple video wall? Try setting a few keyframes and applying the Matrix Creator at different points in the Timeline. The images will rearrange themselves, with constantly changing content.

Matrix Creator is similar in functionality to the Planar Distribution Assistant.

The parameter list.

Interesting paramaters include Set Starting Corner, which decides the corner of the matrix where the first layer will be distributed. Size of Space Grid lets you set the grid space size, like 'Use Comp Size' for a grid space based on the dimensions of the composition, or 'Use Largest Layer', which makes a grid space based on the largest selected layer.
