After Effects 26.3 — GPU acceleration silently falls back to CPU on RTX 50-series (Blackwell / sm_120): shipped CUDA cubins only cover sm_50–sm_90, no PTXSummaryOn an RTX 5070 Ti (GB203, compute capability 12.0 / sm_120), After Effects 26.3 reports Mercury GPU Acceleration (CUDA) as the active renderer, but no CUDA work is ever dispatched. Every GPU-accelerated effect renders on the CPU instead. There is no error message, no warning, and no entry in any log.The cause appears to be in the shipped kernel binaries: Support Files\PTX\CUDA\*.cubin contains pre-compiled images for sm_50 through sm_90 only, and the folder contains no .ptx images. With no matching cubin and no PTX to JIT-compile from, the CUDA driver cannot produce a loadable image for sm_120, so kernel loading fails and After Effects falls back to CPU rendering.Practical impact: renders that completed in roughly 10 minutes on the previous (pre-Blackwell) workstation now take hours on newer, substantially faster hardware.Envir

I have a grid of images 960x720 in a grid in my 16K comp (15360x6480) I have block dissolve set to 960x720But it is not matching the 960 widththere are 16 across which is an even number but it is the width that is inaccurate see attached?Is it broken? Did it ever work correctly? I am sure I used to use it accurately( plus the standard moan...STOP FORCING ME TO TAG AND STOP LIMITING THE SUBJECT LENGTH NOW COME ON!!!! )Tris

Dear Adobe Team,I'm writing to report an ongoing issue that's frustrating many motion designers, including myself.I originally reported a similar problem back in 2023 (), and unfortunately, it was never fully resolved. I managed to work around it by juggling older versions, installing and uninstalling as needed, but it's unbelievable that we face these kinds of problems with such an expensive Creative Cloud subscription. The situation has become much worse with the latest 2025 and 2026 updates.I regularly work on large projects with 500+ assets (PNG, JPG, SWF, audio, video files, etc.). I collect files properly, start working, and everything seems fine at first. But the next day, or after a few days, when I reopen the project, many MP4 and SWF files appear as "missing," show compatibility errors, or fail to display correctly. This isn't a one-time or occasional glitch; it's now my standard workflow. I've wasted countless hours reinstalling software, restarting, and even re-rendering fi

IssueWhen Magnification Behavior is set to Centered, zooming unexpectedly follows the mouse cursor when the first or last vertex of an open Shape Path is selected with the Pen Tool.This does not occur when using the Selection Tool.Steps to reproduce Go to Preferences > Previews > Magnification and set Behavior to Centered. Create a new project and composition. Create a Shape Layer. Using the Pen Tool, draw an open path with three or more vertices. Keep the Pen Tool active. Select the first or last vertex of the open path, or leave the last vertex selected after drawing the path. Move the mouse cursor away from the selected vertex. Zoom in or out using the mouse wheel or the . / , keys. Expected resultThe Composition viewer should zoom around the center of the panel, according to the Centered magnification preference.Actual resultThe view moves rapidly toward the current mouse cursor position while zooming, as if cursor-centered zoom were being used.The issue: occurs

The layers are getting duplicated and auto grouped while importing in after effects. and some times colour is not updating as well. I found a time being solution for this. but previous version does not have this bug.I found solution for this, in new version while editing in illustrator, while giving release layer to sequence. if there any layer that is inside the parent layer and if it has any artwork or path. it automatically duplicates inside after effects and colours are sometimes not updating. I fixed it by just removing the extra layer inside the parent layer and map the artwork path directly below the parent layer. now its working smoothly. But this should not happen in adobe. Basic things are getting harder and harder things are getting better. please fix this in update. thanks 😀

I’m running AE 2026.3 (Build 87) and I’m seeing AE use up all of my available RAM. The screen shot below is from my activity monitor right after I purged all cache with AE open. It looks exactly the same when I close AE. AE 2025 didn't seem to be doing this. Source footage is 2k, and it does this with just basic footage layouts with no complicated comps. After Purging, this repeats after a just a few minutes. The memory usage just climbs until is uses up everything. System: Win11 Pro, i9 9900X, 128Gb RAM, RTX A4500.  

Hola,Cuando intento abrir After Effects 23.3 en Windows 11, no se abre y al mismo tiempo crear dos iconos en el Escritorio, estos icono se llaman AfterFX_2026-08-23_205305.crashHe intentando ejecutar en modo Administrador, pero no funciona.Tampoco puedo actualizar After Effects a una versión reciente ya que mi laptop tiene 8gb de ram. (Tengo también Photoshop y este si funciona)¿Alguna solución?Gracias

IssueRendering a composition using the Advanced 3D Renderer causes memory usage to steadily increase throughout the export until After Effects reaches its memory limit and fails with the following error: "After Effects error: After Effects has unexpectedly run out of memory and cannot complete this export." The issue reproduces consistently on both macOS and Windows and appears to affect all versions of After Effects after 25.4. In addition to the render failure, After Effects does not appear to fully release memory after the error occurs, leaving the application in an unstable state until it is restarted. Steps to Reproduce1. Create a composition using the Advanced 3D Renderer.2. Add multiple 3D layers that are pre-compositions.3. Have those prec-ompositions contain additional nested pre-compositions.4. Configure the nested prec-ompositions so they reference different sections of a large master composition.5. Apply Geometry Options > Curvature to some or all of the 3D layers.6. Ren

BackgroundI'm new to After Effects — I'm working through a beginner course and this is the first time I've actually tried to use the app for real (I'd previously only opened it a few times to follow along with a template's instructions, and didn't touch the type tool then). This issue showed up the first time I tried to change a font. To be clear, this isn't a "type tool is unfamiliar to me" issue — I've since done extensive troubleshooting (below), and everything else in After Effects seems to work normally: layers, effects, keyframing, rendering, other panels, other tools. The font dropdown/font-creation step is the only thing that's broken.SummaryOpening the font dropdown in the Character panel (or Properties panel in the new UI) in After Effects triggers a warning dialog: "After Effects warning: Cannot create font '[font name]'." Clicking OK / pressing Escape does not resolve it — the dropdown either loops through repeated versions of this error and after a while for different font
