Hi, I want to animate the path of the Cell according to the null's position. Is there any way I can do that? I dnt wanna do it manually for losing the synchronicity or rythm. I wanna match the path movement animation extactly according to the null animation. when The null is away the cell should be a bit bigger in scale and when the null is  compressed the path should be small. I tried connecting path's scale property  with null's scale. the result is psychotic. Please help me. Please.

I've got a few Podcasts (thanks for NotebookLM) and short written tutorials that I am hopeful, will be of benefit to AE users.Source Material for the Podcasts are recordings (Aug-Oct 2024) from my course, Develop Advanced Intelligent Design Assets & Motion Systems. Here's the URL to the Podcast - How to Write Performant AE Expressions There's also a growing (hopeful) section, in the Blog area, on using Modern Javascript functions and methods in AE.  

Hi, I am trying to do an extremely simple animation of a single line drawing from Illustrator. I have figured out to do it when I use the pen tool (Image A)- however I would prefer to use lines created drawing freestyle. However when I import a freestyle line to After effects, it does not register the correct path. Is there any easy way to fix this? Image A Image B  

Hi, im Viplexity. Recently, I wanted to start live streaming myself whilst I animate with Adobe After Effects (2019) with the application "StreamLabs OBS". Everything works well except for the fact that the workspace panel in After Effects doesn't show up on stream. Every other panel appears EXCEPT for the workspace panel and I have no clue why. That's the panel that is needed most for display so that the audience can see what i'm animating and how i'm doing it. I've contacted an Adobe employee and they didn't know how to fix it and directed me here to ask one of you for an answer. The streaming program isn't the issue because it works just fine with Sony Vegas and other programs. My Adobe programs are the only ones having this issue (This happens with Photoshop as well but I don't plan on streaming Photoshop). @

After effects 2019 - why can't i see the percentage, I'm trying to keyframe the opacity but there is no Percentage to control it

My timeline section is too small. As you can see inn the photo, the actuall timeline space to the down right is very small, and i want to extend it to the left. but just draging it further to the left is not an option.This happened after connecting my macbook to an external monitor. Does anyone know how to fix it?- thanks 

I'm fairly new to AE. I'm trying to create a vertical text scroll animation in After Effects where lines scroll up and when a specific line reaches the center, it juts to the right. I want to control the scroll with a null and possibly use parenting - I'ma bit lost with it all. Any advice on structure? Should I precomp all lines? Use a second null for juting out ?  Please see reference attached.  Thanks you!

Hi,Is there any way to have an expression so the null layer follows the text range selector x and y position even when we have multiple lines of text? Thank you in advance.

Hi! I would like to resolve this bug as I am significantly hindered in doing projects with this bug within the application.So the issue is that I want to open Preferences/Settings but it crashes every time I try to do so. This disallows me to change my disk cache (currently 10 GB while I normally set it to 500-750 GB) which slows down the program as it is always full... More background information:I work in Adobe After Effects v.23.2.1 on macOS Ventura 13.2.1 (MacBook Pro)The steps I take: Open AE > Go to Preferences via (1) the After Effects tab at the top left or via (2) the shortcut Cmd + Opt + ;Expected result: Opening the settings and being able to change my disk cache and all the other preferences.Actual result: My MacBook messaging with “Application is not responding” and not being able to do anything. And I also can’t access other applications until I Force Quit AE. So far other 'solutions' haven't helped yet, hence this is why I'm posting here. I will continue try

So I want to have a camera move that starts overhead looking down on pebbles, then slowly lowers and lifts to rest on. the ground and  reveal the horizon. Currently doing this with a photo and so by the time the camera comes to rest it reveals its a flat photo so how might I have some volume to the pebbles? Possible? Many thanks

Hello, AE community. Im currently working on some pixel perfect work and ive hit an issue that ive been trying to figure out for days, and i was wondering if anyone else has solved it. When you create a text layer in AE, there seems to be some automatic anti-aliasing that applied to it that I need to disable. Lemme explain with a screenshot; In this screenshot, you see MS Sans Serif of size 20 in 2 different programs, AE and paint.net. You can see that the AE text is blurry and not pixel perfect, while the paint program is not. Changing the quality setting of the text layer makes the issue argubly worse, as it applies the effect after the text smoothing is applied, resulting in inconsistant pixelation that looks terrible;Has anyone found a way to turn this off? Im assuming its a small checkbox in a menu I havent found yet. It seems ludicrous that a program with such a high prestiege (and cost) would not have this option to turn it off. 

It's crazy how many people have asked this question and all the replies are that "the question makes no sense" I'm almost having a breakdown how it's such a simple question and no one seems to answer it.Let me go step by step so people don't give me the same answer and this can finally be resolved.Step 1: Select the orbit camera tool.Step 2: Move it around to see what my image looks like.Step 3: This is where i am having the issue. All i want to know is how to position the camera to the original front position as it was before I even played with the camera view. That's it... just want to know how to reposition the camera to the default position like i never touched the orbit camera tool. Please someone tell me they have the answer to this!

Hello, I've tried this several different times, and I'm not sure what the issue is. I have an animation I made in Animate CC, which I exported as a .MOV file with transparent background. (I know that the file is working properly because I am able to use it with a transparent background in another program - OBS.) When I import the .MOV file to After Effects CC, it changes the Alpha channel to solid black. I have found countless articles about how to EXPORT a video with a transparent background, but none about how to IMPORT one. Hopeing someone here can help me.Please & Thank You,M

I'm looking to animate this isometric design so that the front face of the letter extrudes outward and then pulls back in—basically shifting from a flat letter to an extruded 3D version and back again.I’m struggling with selecting the specific anchor points to adjust on the timeline. Would it make more sense to redraw the shape directly in After Effects, or is there a way to just highlight and animate only the necessary points from my existing design?Any advice would be appreciated!

Hi! I'm trying to export various properties to a file for each frame of an animation, and I'm a bit stumped. I've been able to pick up frame data for other Effects, such as hue and saturation within Color Balance (HLS) effect. like so:layer.property("Effects").property("Color Balance (HLS)").property("Hue").valueAtTime(time, false) However, when I go to do so for various Levels properties (Input Black, Input White, Gamma), it only gives me the data for the frame I currently have selected in the timeline. The only thing I can guess is that TECHNICALLY the stopwatch icon is on the Histogram property, and those are some sort of sub-property that only show up in the effect controls. But not sure if there's a way to get these numbers from the histogram itself in a script? I've tried doing e.g. property("Histogram").property(1) but not having any luck there. Using Property("Histogram") at all seems to just make the script not run at all. Any help would be appreciated! Thank yo

Hello,I would like to cancel my subscription. Could you please assist me with this? Also, I’d like to understand the cancellation terms—why would there be a fee charged if I unsubscribe? Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi, In File > Project Settings > Expressions  we have a field named Expressions Engine and we can Select Javascript.We can then use modern javascript for our expressions. But When I tried to create a script, method like map, reduce.. on arrays are not recognized. Does it means scripting is still on LegacyExtendscript ?

J'ai un problème les effets ne tiennent plus compte des masques... D'avance, merci

I was trying to combine both text style & Sourcetext but it kept telling me it's not a function.I have the most updated version of After Effects.

I'm editing a comp for a school project and when I pause (space bar) and press play (space bar) the playback goes BACK to the beginning of my comp and not where I had paused it in my timeline. I'm trying to see my progress from when I'm editing in my timeline without having to watch the video from the beginning. How do I stop this? I must have hit a few keys of selected something to mess up my spacebar functions

I am using the newest update of AE and Premiere. I have a lower thirds template created in After Effects that animates in and out via the Position attribute. I'd like to make the source text, as well as the Position adjustable to accommodate different title lengths. When I export the .mogrt and open it in Premiere, the Position attribute is static and does not retain the keyframes from the After Effects project. So the lower third does not animate, it just appears and remains at one Position value. I'd like for the Premiere editor not to have to re-keyframe the animation, and instead just adjust the values of the Position keyframes I've set in After Effects as needed. Is there a way to export this .mogrt with a "Position In" and "Position Out" keyframe already in place, with adjustable values for Premiere?Thank you for any help!

Hi all, I've been using after effects for a while now and have never encountered this issue even doing very effects-heavy projects and 3D work. I'm getting system warnings that AE is using too much memory and I can't do previews more than 5 frames even though I have no effects applied, just 5 clips laid down in the timeline. I have no other apps open.
