Earns its place for handling a small but repetitive task, centering layers, in one click, including across several selected layers at once.
One Click Center is a tool for After Effects that moves a layer to the center with one click. Rather than adjusting position values by hand, you select a layer and center it in a single action. It's a simple tool built around that single positioning task.
The tool works with multiple selected layers at once, so several layers can be centered together. It's suited to motion graphics and PV projects that require creating multiple shape layers and text layers, and it saves time by avoiding repetitive manual adjustments.
Released as version 1.0 on September 29, 2024, One Click Center runs on After Effects 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020, and CC 2019. Version 1.0 is its initial release, and a demo video is available on the developer's page.
One Click Center is best for motion graphics and PV projects that require creating multiple shape layers and text layers.
One Click Center is completely free to download and use.
One Click Center supports After Effects 2025, along with 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020, and CC 2019. If you're on any of those versions, the tool is listed as compatible. It was released as version 1.0 on September 29, 2024, which is its initial release, so this compatibility range reflects that first version. For the current compatibility details and any later updates, check the developer's page before installing.
One Click Center works with multiple selected layers at once, so you can center several layers together rather than one at a time. This makes it aimed at motion graphics and PV projects that involve creating multiple shape layers and text layers, where you would otherwise repeat the same positioning step. By moving a layer to the center in a single click, it removes the repetitive manual adjustments that pile up across many layers.
One Click Center is listed as free in this catalog. Licensing terms can change over time, so for the current pricing and any licensing details it's best to check the developer's page on aescripts before downloading. The tool is a version 1.0 release from September 29, 2024, and it runs on After Effects versions from CC 2019 through 2025. A demo video is available on the developer's page.
