Line Connection Tool for After Effects

Easy Connect creates dynamic connecting lines between layers in After Effects, fully customizable with dashes, arrowheads, and multiple connection types. Master Controls let you adjust everything across all layers at once, and the built-in path tracer lets you animate any object along any shape or mask path. Whether you're building flowcharts, diagrams, network visualizations, or process animations, Easy Connect handles the complex stuff for you.

Time Delay

Set a time delay to offset your Trim Paths animations. Choose the delay order: Default, Reversed, or Random.

Shorten Paths

Produces consistent gaps no matter the line length — something that isn’t possible with Trim Paths.

Line Position Offset

Offset the line position to create parallel lines. This is great for animations that show a process going in both directions.

Master Controls

Master Controls lets you drive all your line connection layers from a single control layer. You can choose which feature sets should be controlled by the master and which should be left to the individual layer.

Trace

The built-in path tracer lets you animate any object along any shape or mask path — even multiple paths in sequence — including automatic scale and opacity falloff towards the ends.

Easy Connect creates 100% native After Effects files using shape layers and pseudo effects. This means it's fully compatible with MOGRTs and Premiere Pro, making it a great choice for template creators.
