After Effects Alert Dialog Action

With the help of the After Effects Alert Dialog Action it is possible to send a message to a user in the Helmut4 panel. This message is sent to the hidden After Effects panel and uses an Extendscript function provided by After Effects. This means that it is only possible to send a message to a user if he triggers an action via the Helmut4 panel and is also the executing user. For example during the export. If the export is to be carried out on a dedicated rendering machine (setting in the profile), this is of course not possible, since the user who accepts the job is then not the user who submitted the job.
