Resolve Special Path
Resolves `~` and supported special path placeholders such as `::DESKTOP::` into an absolute path string. This is a pure string transformation block. It does not check whether the resolved path exists. Unknown placeholders are left unchanged.
Inputs
| Input | Required | Value Kind | Types | Enum Values |
|---|---|---|---|---|
path | yes | expression | string | — |
Notes
- Pure read expression that resolves
~and supported special path placeholders such as::DESKTOP::. - Returns a resolved path string without checking whether that path currently exists.
Examples
Render Active-Sequence Frames At Equal Distances To Fixed Folder
Exports a small evenly spaced set of `.png` frames across the active sequence to a fixed folder path, so visual timeline sampling can be runtime-validated deterministically.

Render Frames At Sequence Markers To Fixed Folder
Exports one `.png` frame per active-sequence marker to a fixed folder path, so marker-driven still export can be runtime-validated deterministically.
