Any ideas how to remove it, please?thats so annoying! why should I get some errors messages after official updates and find f*king sollution to make it work properly again instead of working on projects? Adobe as usual make some troubles and headaches 

Hello, I would like to find a way or a plugin to animate text that is affected by an image or a shape. Like in InDesign or Microsoft Word when you put an image over a text, it moves around to reposition itself. Example :  Thank you!!!

Expressions are disabled when using text.sourceText.style.autoLeadingThey return "Error: internal error"This was tested in both Position and Source Text properties.OS: macOS Sonoma 14.7After Effects: Version 25.0.1 (Build 2)

How can I open a 3D object in After Effects with all its parts separately? For example, a car. The doors, wheels, and rims will each be a separate layer.

So I have a 27" iMac (Late 2K15) 3.3 GHZ i5, running on 32 GB RAM, and an AMD Radeon R9 2GB GPU. I thought this was sufficient for rendering 2D compositing from After effects, but After Effects wants to keep crashing half way through the render every time. Why is this? P.S. I keep my "CAPS Lock" on whilst rendering so I save some RAM. (Doesn't make a difference.This happens, even if I "Purge Memory" before starting to render.Do I need a better system, or am I fundamentally skipping an important step here?

이번 업데이트 이후에 프리미어, 에펙 연동해서 작업을 할 때연결 된 컴포지션을 에펙에서 수정하면수정 된 내용이 프리미어에 적용되지 않고 처음 컴포지션을 연결시켰던 내용으로만 재생됩니다.뭔가 오류가 있는 것 같습니다.

In previous versions of AE you can search for "Folder" in the Project Panel search bar and everything but Folders will be filtered out – handy for quickly applying label colors to all folders in one go or renaming/organizing them.In Version 25.0.1 (Build 2) searching for Folder in the Project Panel search bar, nothing shows up.

When I switch from Classic 3D to Advanced 3D in the latest version of After Effects it alters my footage luma levels. Initially I thought it was a bug, but then I discovered that it can be recovered using curves and also by adding an Ambient light and adjusting the settings (set Ambient to 100% and everything else to 0%) - see video link example. - https://vimeo.com/1023856696/edddc7255a?share=copyIs this expected behaviour?

Based on some recent forum questions, I've put together a tutorial to talk you through creating a stylish, motion graphic set of 4 boxes which can change shape, pushing the others out of the way - with only 3 keyframable properties.   It is all down to a few repeated expressions, track mattes and the transform effect (instead of the transform properties). Even making the rounded corners is simple, as I use the Simple Choker effect.  

I have an EXR file in After Effects in OCIO color management. The render displays as expected but as soon as I apply any exposure to it my RG Glow effects clips.What do I need to do to prevent this? I have linked an example file so you can see my setup. Any help is much appreciated! https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/7eh37dx12ik3ern6o8acj/forum-files.zip?rlkey=dciqvh2tk6v1gyxofm2f0sxj6&dl=0  

Every time I use any of my animation presets that use an effect, the keyframes attached to the preset gets shifted a few seconds into the timeline and not where the playhead is - which is normal behaviour in AE 2023. I rely heavily on these presets with keyframes so I cannot update to 2024 until this is fixed. Has anyone else had the same problem?

I'm having an issue with an Adobe After Effects 2020 project file, and I'm hoping someone here might be able to help.When I try to open my .aep file, in 2020 I get this error message:"After Effects error: missing data in file."When I try to open my .aep file, in 2019 I get this error message:"Unable to execute script at line 41. After Effects error: missing data in file."I'm unable to even open the file to see what might be wrong, which makes it challenging to troubleshoot. I’m not sure if the problem is due to a corrupt file, missing assets, or an issue with the script I'm using.Here’s what I’ve tried so far:Import Instead of Open: Tried to import the project into a new After Effects project, but it still won't work.Cleared Cache and Preferences: Cleared cache and tried resetting preferences by holding down Shift + Alt + Ctrl during launch. No luck.Auto-Save Versions: Looked for any usable auto-saved versions, but unfortunately, they're not recent enough.Tried on a Different

The problem I've been facing is when my adjustment layer has effects added to it that makes a distortion or something under footage or effects, it sets it in the middle of the screen and the effect doesn't follow the position of the footage or effect. Some examples of the effects are:Displacement mapChromatic displacementCompound blurand more... This is very important because I am a VFX editor and I need this to work for my videos. Evidence:   My version of After Effects is 2022, but this was also happening on the 2020 app.

Hi everyone,I’m facing an issue while trying to export a video with a transparent background from After Effects. I’ve tried multiple solutions but nothing seems to work. My goal is to create a video with a transparent background that I can then embed onto a website.Here’s what I’ve attempted so far:• Exporting as QuickTime with the “RGB+Alpha” channel.• Using various formats like PNG sequence, WebM, and others.• Toggling “Render with Alpha” settings in the export panel.No matter what I try, the background keeps showing up solid rather than transparent. If anyone has experience with exporting transparent background videos specifically for web use, I’d really appreciate any advice or step-by-step guidance!

Hi there, I just downloaded Adobe After Effect (newest version) and I cannot roll down any tools when I hover over it or click on it. (f.ex. I only have rectangle accessible but cannot access the rest of the tools like rounded rectangle, polygon etc). I tried downloading previous versions hoping it was some sort of a bug but it doen't work on any of them. Any ideas how to fix that? Thank you! Julie

Hello.  I am producing a a 4K video in After Effects, using the latest version and I have 32 GB of Ram.  I have an issue where I see random upside down or blank frames intermittently flashing.  Whilst searching for a solution I came across another post with people experiencing the same thing, but no solution as of yet... does anyone know what the issue could be, and how to fix it? https://adobe-video.uservoice.com/forums/911311-after-effects/suggestions/35632837-bug-report-random-frames-flashing-during-playback Thanks, Christian 

Hello, i'm having a problem where during my preview the clips overlap. This doesnt come out during the final render but its really bothering me because i want to know what it looks like without the glitch. I'm using AE 2021. 

Hi everyone, I imported a gltf file into AE and animated it. I tried to export back to C4D for rendering and texturing but looks like the exporter doesn't send 3D models + animation. Is there any way to export an animated gltf file from AE to C4D or any other 3D software?

After updating to AE24 I started to have two problems with copy/pasting effects in the Effect Controls panel:1. Copy/paste within a single layer no longer works — when I need to stack the same effect on a layer, if I copy effect it in the Effect Controls panel using Cmd+C and try to paste it on the same layer using Cmd+V it does not work anymore. For this one there's a workaround, as Cmd+D to Duplicate still works, but there's another problem, probably connected to it, which is...2. Copy/pasting effect from one layer to another layer that already has the same type of effect just overrides it. Say, if you have Numbers effect on Layer 1, copy it using Cmd+C in the Effect Controls panel, select Layer 2 which already has same Numbers effect applied with different params, and paste effect using Cmd+V — the parameters of existing effect get overriden with parameters of the pasted effect, while the expected result (and as it always used to work) — the pasted effect should become stacked as a
