Object relationship diagram

Premiere Pro

About 2 weeks ago I started a plugin for Premiere.
Like many of you I read a bunch of stuff and ended up going back many time to various UXP doc pages (mostly describing the Premier objects and their methods/property, and trying to tie everything together).

Yesterday I finally took the time to put my understanding of the relation between objects on a diagram for a quick lookup. Make if much faster for me to see how to access an object (some are obvious, other less so).
Note it only contains the relationship between object and methods/properties to get to them; this is NOT a full description of all API for all objects :slight_smile:

While still a work in progress, I thought I would share here it may help you as well - as I would have been stoked to find this 2 weeks ago,(would have save me a lot of time).

  • See how one can access an object which may not be obvious at first.
  • Find bug in the Docs (Makes little sense why a MArkers::getMarkers() takes a “ProjectItem” as the doc states - when trying it only work for CipProjectItem as one would expect)
  • …
