After Effects

(Screen Recording attached)A rectangle in a shape layer. Added a "repeater" to rectangle, which created 3 repeats with no offset. I suppose each repeat gets its own layer space, with its own origin, and an anchor point. My question is why is that when I change the anchor point's coordinates, none of the repeats move to adjust for a constant position value? I mean each repeat has its own origin and its anchor point, and a repeat's position is the position of its anchor point as measured from the origin of the previous repeat. If I'm not wrong the origin for each repeat here will exactly be at the center of the these squares. A position value of 200,100 in the "transform:repeater" would mean that the second square's anchor point (which is at its center, exactly on the origin of it), is at a distance of 200,100 from the origin of the 1st square. And the anchor point of the third is at 200,100 from the origin of the second square (which makes sense in the video). However,if I change t

Ok so my preview window in after effects is displaying at about quarter framerate so I can't make edits - as in - if I change the composition framerate to 120 fps then I have a somewhat reasonable framerate (about 25 frames) to work with. I've tried everything on the improve performance page but i don't think this is the issue. It's a simple lyric video i'm trying to make and I have an i7-9750H, RTX2070 and 16 gigs of ram. Please help. 

I'm trying to figure out the easiest way to create this complicated effect. It's many photos moving back in space to form one photo. Getting the final photo to start out with that kind of 3D pixelation is the trick. It may have been done in another program in 3D but I don't know, maybe an AE plug-in or template. Thanks for any suggestions. https://youtu.be/7mVWYCZiUZY?t=258 

I am trying to 3d track a clip on my PC on after effects 2024. I tried to Track my footage, however when its done tracking the track point dont show up. They only show up if i press render track points, but when i do that and try to use one of the track points it simply doesnt work. I tried messing with the settings and i trid precomposing the clip. I never had any errors.  I am very new to after effects so any help would be appreciated. my PC specs:cpu: amd ryzen 5600Ggpu: amd radeon 6600 xtRam: 16gbScreenshot:   

Вчера все было в порядке, сегодня включаю компьютер, запускаю афтер эффект, и ничего не работает, кликаю мышкой по таймлайну, не могу выбрать никакой слой, курсор не появляется, в панели проект также не могу выбрать ни папки, ни слои. Перезапустила афтер эффект, проблема остается та же самая. Афтер не работает. Заранее благодарю за помощь! Не могу завершить срочный заказ!

This is a speedometer. If the dial rotates left to right how can I maintain the spacing and the round cap as it moves?

My after effects says I need to delete a double installed plugin, but when I follow the path I get stuck in the common folder (dead end), see screenshot.  I need to fix this because Ae is crashing

I have a pre-comp nested in my main comp that i'd like to loop.I enabled Time Remapping, went to the last keyframe, moved back one frame and made a new keyframe, then deleted the original last keyframe.I also tried doing the same but replacing the original last keyframe with the a copy of the first one. However both methods have still resulted in the dreaded last black frame of the loop. The last frame is always black. I've gone through plenty of forum posts on this website and others and still haven't found a solution unfortunately. This is really doing my head in!Any help is much appreciated. Thanks

Hi,I create best-of videos from Twitch live streams. The rushes are about 4 hours of .ts files with variable framerate/60fps.I use Dynamic Link a lot to edit my project in After Effects. The problem is that when I do this, very often the keyframes become invisible in AE. They are still there because you can see them in the Graph Editor, which serves as a workaround for this issue, but it's not practical.I always use the latest versions of my software, and I already had this problem when I started editing, which was more than 4 years ago. I also talked to support about it, but they didn't provide a solution. In the meantime, I have changed my hardware several times. I think it's safe to say that the problem is not related to my PC, especially since I also have it on my laptop.I would really like Adobe to fix this problem, as it wastes a lot of my time on my projects.Premiere Pro V25.2.3After Effects V25.2.2

Hey so I cant open after effects because the sapphire bundle is missing. They say I should reinstall the sapphire plugins to fix the problem but no matter how many times I reinstall it it wont work. I would really appreciate if someone could help me. 

 I have these popups when I turn on After Effects. May I know are there anywhere I can reinstall the plugins? How can I fix the "Couldn't find main entry point for AEXD.aex (48::72)" error? Any help would be much appreciated.  

I have a clip in my timeline and when I keyframe transform values, the keyframes don't show up in my timeline. The keyframes are working (the clip is zooming and rotating) but I can't visualy see them. I also tried adding an effect to the clip and the keyframes for that don't show up for that either.I can see the keyframes for my shape layer just fine.Added screenshots to show what I mean.

Hello,I used to be able to add markers using the * key on my number pad while listening to an audio preview that was generated when I hit the . key. Now when I create a preview the cursor does not travel in real-time along with the audio. It goes slower. So when I try to add a marker, the marker is not correctly added on the time-line at that moment I want. Another issue is that when I create a preview, it loops and loops and loops. It seams that hitting the space bar to try to stop it does not have an immediate effect like it used to. Now it takes my computer a really long time to realize that I've hit a key to stop the preview. I've also noticed that my keyboard is not as responsive as it is in other programs. When using the type tool in AE, I'll have to type very slowly, almost like 1 character per second. I'm not sure if all these issues are related but it seems like it all started when I got a new computer and new OS. When I used after effects on my old computer using Catalina (or

Hi everyone,I'm experiencing a frustrating issue in After Effects. When I'm working in the Composition panel—say, drawing a shape like a rectangle—the mouse cursor lags behind slightly. It feels delayed and unresponsive, almost like it's dragging. This makes precise work really difficult.The strange part is that I have a fairly goodPC (Radeon 6800, ryzon 5800x, 32 GB Ram)  so performance shouldn't be an issue. I've already tried reducing the preview resolution and closing other background programs, but the problem persists.Has anyone experienced something similar? Could it be related to GPU settings, drivers, or something in After Effects preferences?Any help would be greatly appreciated!Thanks in advance!

Hi.I've been Googling and YouTubing this and all the info I can find is about 3D camera solving. Here's what I want to do: I have some footage of someone turning their head, and I want to put a 3D model of a hat on them that follows the movement of the head. Is this even possible? Would camera solve work for this? Or just a normal Motion Track with position and rotation? I've tried the latter quickly and I can't seem to get results. Maybe I'm doing it wrong.So first, is it even possible? If yes, anyone know how I could go about it?Thanks

I work for a video game developer and I am always having problems with footage glitching in both After Effects and Premiere. The source footage does not glitch at all.In After Effects, some clips will glitch when I export or just pre-render.In Premiere, it can sometimes glitches in the preview window and on the timeline.In both cases, the workaround has been to replace footage with a different clip temporarily and the replace it again with the proper footage. This either fixes the issue or glitches then happen again in DIFFERENT spots. This is annoying but it works... BUT, now I have a project which has 12 clips on the same screen. 2-3 of them will glitch, so I do my workaround, but then others will then glitch and this keeps happening.I uploaded a video on YouTube as an example. The following monsters glitch:- Top Left (Towards the end of the video)- Bottom Left (Shortly after appearing)- 2nd row, 3rd monster in (Shortly after appearing)Any suggestions?Thanks!

Hi, When using After Effects, I have a text box that is getting cut off by some invisible elements. I can't seem to find what the problem is. Here is a screenshot:Thanks in advance.   

Hi,I need some guidance from  seniors.  Sometimes I re-open my AE projects after months and I entirely forget  what I did to which layer/s.. I can say from watching movement/animation. But I am curious to know If there is a way to tell which layers have keyframes from 100 layers if not more!! Without selcting them all and press 'U' and scrolling for ages!!! ( I am very impatient ). Please seniors any way to know?? Thank you
