After Effects

Hello, I got a little head scratcher here. I have designed a font, on a 1000pt grid (with a cap-height of 760pt). Then I type H in Illustrator at 500pt size and outline the strokes, the letter is exactly 380px tall (as it should be). When I type a 500pt H in After Effects and convert it to a shape layer, it is 382,6904 pixels tall. Does anyone know why there's a difference and how to fix it? I need it to be precise in After Effects so I can work with whole numbers.  

I have tried to use keylight on a subject before with no green bouncing on them and they always have this weird noise on their solid color non-green clothes.  Is there a way to fix this with another plug in?

Hey developers.... I'm facing this problem for a week now. I dunno the reason of this problem, when I add ''Magic bullet looks'' Plug-in my AE will crash, I swear It was working perfectly fine before. 

I'm used to having problems with After effects when it comes to Arabic. But, this used to be fixed by going to  After effects/preferences/Type and choose /south Asian and middle east Now this doesn't exist when I go to <type> Any ideas how to fix this?  

Hello everyone !I was trying to animate my logo in After Effect. When I turned on 3D on the layers, I got a display error on one of the layers. I'm not sure why, but a black frame appears around the image on one of the layers. I think black represents transparency. Take a look at the attached screenshot. This isn't the first time this has happened. The last time it happened was in the previous version of After Effect.Is there an option I can enable in the GPU's Nvidia panel ? Thanks. 

I duplicated and flipped a path horizontal to mirror the original. When I copy the path of the flipped path and paste it to the position of my new shape layer, it just follows along the original unflipped path instead of the flipped one. Does anyone know how I can get my shape layer to follow along a path that has been flipped horizontal?

Hopefully a wonderful guru out there can help me. I created a video and it looks and plays fine in After Effects. However, when I render it (using Media Encoder as well as Render Queue) it is disregarding a layer or two. I have never had this happen before and of course I'm creating a sample video for a project at work. Any ideas on what this could be. Thanking you in advance. 

I'm rigging a character up and trying to crop in on one of the limbs. I've selected the region of interest. The composition box is selected. When I go to Composition drop down "Crop Comp to Region of Interest" is not available. It is grayed out. Not sure what I'm doing wrong? Please help.

load this file. I'm using AE 24.6.2 build 2 on windows 10. At half resolution the top shape correctly masks the bottom one, and it's invisible.Switch to full resolution and suddenly it's visibleMove the mask 0.01 pixels vertically in either direction and it works again.Gonna say....it's a bug! And it broke my renders and I have a deadline &#x1f605

Hello Friends,can someone help me ,thank you !i have this timeline in premiere and when i import to after effects there is space between clipsi made sure and checked there's 0 space in premiere  

I'm trying to apply the trim paths effect to quite a complex illustrator comp made up of multiple layers/objects.When I first gave it a go I experienced the issue many other people have faced of it trimming/revealing the fill of a layer. So, I went back to the illustrator comp and changed EVERY layer so it had no fill and just a stroke (this was a long process), only to discover that this did not resolve the issue once I took it back into AE and tried again. Can anyone help as I'm invested in this now and don't want to give up!

I have a project which is relatively complex with quite a few expressions in pre-comps to animate characters.Since updating to the latest version of AE it is taking up-to 45 seconds to load and 'paint' the composition when double clicking to display it. For example, I just dragged a simple vector shape into a scene and it took 45 seconds to display the new composition layer. Once displayed it's fine. I have the same project in the previous version of AE and it was much much faster to display. What's going on? Is anyone else having this issue? It's killing my workflow. (and yes my Nvidia 3090 graphics card drivers are up-to-date with a studio driver).

In AE 25.0.1 (build 2) custom hotkeys are not working for any audio preview.Windows 11 

Hi all,When I take a simple image, actor's face, and use rotobrush 2.0 , it outlines it just fine, but......  (always a but)...The very first frame is ripply. The rotobrush doesn't look good until the 2nd frame.I start the rotobrush on the first frame, and I do a little tester, so the settings appear, and I select "quality best" prior to doing the full outline.I'm still on frame one...I do a full rotobrush and as always, the first frame stinks, the 2nd one is nice, as well as all others to the end.I can't figure this one out.  Please tell me I don't have reinstall the entire program for this type of glitch. 😞 Here is an example  (it's doing it for other clips as well.) First frame:  (top of actor's head) note:  it's all ripply Then the 2nd frame to the end... it looks fine: I made sure the 'caps lock' is off, caz I know AE is alergic to that button.Using standard DV clips, latest AE version, 32gb ram, 1050ti gpu, Ryzen 7.&n

When setting the Color Theme to "Dark", the rulers (View > Show Rulers) do not follow the color of the UI.Also, the first part of the X-ruler is cut off. (Colors in Darkest and Light are correct, but the cut also happens here.) Consistent bug. AE 25.0.1Mac OS 15.0.1

What is the key to replacing footage so that the .png is in the same position as before (more or less).For example: replacing pants on a character with a newer version.

I purchased Element 3d a couple of months ago, but since a recent adobe after effects update, it no longer is shown in the effects panel. I already reinstalled it, but it's still missing. How can I fix this error?Thanks for helping! 

Hi All, I work in After Effects to make MOGRTs for every video series my company produces. Before the latest update, I could drag and drop photos or logos from my timeline to the AE Essential Graphics panel, making them replaceable assets for our editors to update for each video. All they had to do was click the hamburger menu in Premiere and select "Replace from Finder." Now, the option to do so (or to do anything with the replaceable file) is greyed out.  To make them work again, I cleared all properties, recreated them, and reexported the MOGRTs in the latest version of AE. The issue persists. I currently have about three templates and ten files within those templates that are affected. We produce 5-10 videos a month affected by this change. Would love to fix the issue quickly so that I can continue using and building out our CC libraries. Thanks!

This error just appears every time I start the program. I don't know what it is, as it doesn't seem to affect how the program works. But I think it is pertinent to report it. Issue - Unable to execute script at line 19123. ThemeColor is no longer available in AEAdobe After Effects version number - After Effects v25.0.1Operating system - Windows 11Steps to reproduce - Just by starting the program 

I'm working with a JPEG image sequence, and have deleted frames frames at various points before bringing them into AE. Instead of skipping the missing frames, AE renders missing media frames in place of the ones I deleted, instead of just skipping them. Is there a way around this without having to manually rename all of the images so there are no missing numbers?Thanks,Molgaard

I'm in a fortunate position that my work is going to buy me a new high-end laptop, either Dell or Lenovo. The Dell XPS 16 has an RTX 4070, which from what I find online is better than the RTX 3000 Ada in the Lenovo P16 Gen 2. But the Lenovo can expand to 96GB RAM, the Dell to 64GB. They have the same processor, so that's even. Some of the other differences (weight, keyboard) are not a factor for me, I'm just at a point of reading so much about these machines that I'm in analysis paraylsis with this RAM vs. GPU thing.For my use, I do a lot of AE projects with including Element 3D, Particular, and the VFX Suite from Maxon. I don't anticipate getting into Blender or Unreal 3D work. My PPro work isn't typically super complicated with tons of layers of high res footage, but since I have this opportunity for a new laptop would like to future proof as best I can.I know both of these are nice machines and would do a good job. Thoughts on which way to go? Or other laptops I should consider?&nbs

Hello, I have a fairly niche use case, but I use automation blocks to run macros from my stream deck, utilising Bitfocus Companion and HTML commands.  I have a couple of kbar actions that I would like to trigger from my streamdeck. Is there a way I can launch a kbar action from inside automation blocks? Thank you.
