Hi, yes there’s not much documentation on the xml file! Type is whether it’s a point, area, line or elipse effect. These consts in the module might help shed some light:
Const tlPOINT_EFFECT:Int = 0
Const tlAREA_EFFECT:Int = 1
Const tlLINE_EFFECT:Int = 2
Const tlELLIPSE_EFFECT:Int = 3
Const tlCONTINUOUS:Int = 0
Const tlFINITE:Int = 1
Const tlANGLE_ALIGN:Int = 0
Const tlANGLE_RANDOM:Int = 1
Const tlANGLE_SPECIFY:Int = 2
Const tlEMISSION_INWARDS:Int = 0
Const tlEMISSION_OUTWARDS:Int = 1
Const tlEMISSION_SPECIFIED:Int = 2
Const tlEMISSION_IN_AND_OUT:Int = 3
Const tlEND_KILL:Int = 0
Const tlEND_LOOPAROUND:Int = 1
Const tlEND_LETFREE:Int = 2
TimelineFX is quite complex so it will depend on what you’re trying to convert to on how smooth this will go I guess.
