Exporting Your Design
If you change your AE files, you need to export those changes to the You.i Platform before you build the app.
When your AE compositions are complete, export them to a format that can be used by the You.i Platform:
-
In the AE Composition menu, select You.i: Export All Compositions.
-
When requested to select the export folder, navigate to the following directory:
<MyApp>/AE/assets.
The build scripts look for AE assets in the <MyApp>/AE/assets directory.
Ensure you save your exported files there.
Once you save them there, it becomes the new default location for every future AE export.
The Exporter uses the following naming convention for the files it produces: <AE-file-name>_<composition-name>.
By convention, the AE files of an app have their topmost composition named Main.
For example, when the Home.aep file is exported, it produces a .layout file and a .timeline file for each composition in the Home.eap file, including a Home_Main.layout file and a Home_Main.timeline file for the topmost composition.
