Havent used after effects for awhile, when I doubled clicked before it use to fill the window with anything else going to a tab. Now it opens a new window beside the composition window which makes it small I dont need to see the composition window just what I am working on.
the whole distort family effects would need some love, but the mesh warp could be a super powerful tool if could :-have access to every points and tangeants positions-lasso select points-scale, shear, rotate the grid to affect only a part of the image -making it 3d-promote it to b 32bpc gpu accelerated-go beyond those request and make it a weapon of choice to my knowledge this effect has been change only once to be able to move points with arrow keys...
The transform box is all well and good but it doesn't really give you the ability to do repeatable graph edits. Its all guesswork. Even the info pane doesn't tell you a scale percentage. For example this is a simple LTR animation (x pos keyframe) that I want to flip and have it go RtL. Ideally I want to scale this keframe over the x-axis -100%. I can click the bottom of the transform box and drag it over and up but I'm just eyeballing the graph until it looks similar, instead of doing an exact transform. Ideally you should be able to double click on the transform box and type in a value or something like that. In blender you would select keyframes, type S then a value. That is very fast, but not really how AE does things, but would love some more dynamic manipulation of keyframes like Blender has.
I’m in Free Transform, is there any way to shear or skew the bounding box?
For some reason, I cannot use the 3D camera tracker anymore. It worked fine on my last project. I’ve tried to track multiple clips to no avail. It doesn’t move past “Initializing.” After a while, I get an error that reads “timed out obtaining dynamiclink server” even if it’s a standalone project that isn’t connected to Premiere. I’m using AE v 26.2.1. Anyone know how to fix this?
God, I have no idea why i keep crashing, I didn’t have anything complicated, no script. Just come footages and simple composition.Anyone can help ?
I encountered a serious UI bug in After Effects affecting the Timeline panel switches.After using the new Angular tool / Bone Structure workflow (possibly related), certain layer switch controls in the Timeline panel became completely unresponsive. Specifically, the Switches area (including Shy, Solo, visibility and other switch icons) appears visually active, but clicking any switch only highlights the entire switches region with a selection outline instead of toggling the actual switch state.The controls behave as if the Timeline panel is frozen, while the rest of After Effects continues to function normally.What I already tried:Restarting After Effects Clearing cache Resetting workspace Renaming the composition Opening different projects/compositions Restarting the computer Testing other Timeline layoutsNothing resolved the issue.This may possibly be related to running DUIK/Angular rigging tools or to a GPU/UI rendering issue. I am using anMy specifications:Windows 11NVIDIA RTX 3060
Honestly, sometimes I think it is done on purpose. Why in gods name would this be the case after a minor update?I'm in full deadline mode now, my pc/mac updated and can't open my projectfile now!!!this is sick!
Whenever I open aftereffects, it pops up with this message saying it couldn’t open GPUSniffer or something. AE has worked fine for about a year, and this is the first time its started happening, but it stops me from getting in or doing anything. GPU: AMD Ryzen RX 9060 XTCPU: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D
it’s this warning, may be some castomization wrong?
Moderator Note: Moved new issue report here from previous thread: https://community.adobe.com/t5/after-effects-bugs/unable-to-import-fla-files-into-ae/idi-p/13575254 Original Message: Same issue here, this never worked In my experience. This has been broken for AGES Adobe... FIX IT.Just comes down to really bad code quality / poor software verification testing.
I downloaded the "Hand-Drawn Titles" mogrt (AdobeStock_230451463) from Adobe Stock, and I can't open it in AE. In fact, it is grayed out in Finder when I do try to import it. I'm using the latest versions of all Adobe products AE and Premer Pro still not opeing any suggestions Thanks.
For the past week, I have been having issues with After Effects opening up. It gets stuck on the splash screen and then stops responding after it Initializes Audio Devices. I’ve always had issues with this program, but usually one of the usual tricks would get it working. Downgrading to an earlier version, using the clean up tool (that doesn’t actually clean up everything), running as administrator, running with windows 8 compatibility, updating to the new drivers, downgrading to past drivers. I manually deleted every trace of adobe from my computer, and only then did it work briefly a few days ago. However, I have not been able to get it working since. I repeated the same steps I took the first time, but nothing. And now I’ve been troubleshooting for the past 5-6 hours because I have a project I need to work on.I’ve tried all of the versions that are currently available on the creative cloud. The only one that I got working, briefly, was version 26.0. I’m on Windows 10, have a
When I use face tracking in After Effects 2026, all the markers disappear after tracking! What's wrong? It works fine in After Effects 2024.All those marker is no showing or no response after the tracking finished
After effects will not launch, last thing on splash screen is mediacore, not even as admin in safe mode with no 3rd party plugins and reset preferences.Posted here because it seemed to start when using After Effects, but no Adobe video apps will load. AfterFX 25.4 and 23.6, PPro 25.4 and 23.6.8, Media Encoder 25.4 all crash at splash screen. Photoshop loads OK, but I thought Creative Cloud app was very sluggish for a while too, though now it's OK.

I want to do exactly this same effect in the face:https://youtu.be/bHs86ImDkbs?si=B_oRnFmehUjYUUo9&t=20What i tried SO FAR in my AE 2022:https://i.gyazo.com/08d0171dc6d15c86e86dc97022bd9b7a.pngBut it's not the same result, any tips? Thanks in advance.
Hello, I have a recurring issue: it involves create and animate an environment light layer with shadows enabled and even more when it has keyframes in a 3D scene. I’m unable to export a composition that uses the environment light. And when my composition has more than five layers, I can’t create an environment light layer with shadows enabled. After Effects crashes. How can I fix this?
Hello, I have read the other forum posts on this topic and would like to highlight my own.My issue is similar to this one. I haven’t tried running AE in admin as I am using my work computer, but moving the file to a local drive did NOT work. My company avoids cloud-based services because we use our own internal networks (could THAT be the reasoning? IDK) I received a SolidWorks .glb file from one of our engineers over email. I downloaded it and when importing the .glb to AE was met with this message. My first guess was that this was because the file was downloaded from our internal email server. However when I received the .glb directly on a USB stick, it was still unable to import. Perhaps there is an incompatibility with SolidWorks’ export settings? I can successfully import .glbs downloaded from 3D model websites. I am able to open the .glb files in Adobe Dimension with no issue. I am also to able export from Dimension as an .glb, .gltf, and .obj, all of which successfully import t
Latest version of After Effects never opened, always crashes at startup.
Dear Adobe Support Team,I am facing a recurring issue while launching Adobe After Effects on my workstation. The error message displayed is:"After Effects warning: Unable to create AGM font ('Adobe Clean' - 'Bold') Processor: 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-12700 @ 2.10 GHzInstalled RAM: 16 GB (15.7 GB usable)System Type: 64-bit operating system, x64-based processorOperating System: [Mention your Windows version, e.g., Windows 10 Pro]After Effects Version: [Mention AE version, e.g., After Effects 2024Since none of these steps resolved the problem, I would appreciate your guidance on how to fix this issue. Please let me know if you require any additional details
Typography is an important part of many animations. With the great amount of options designers have with OpenType-Fonts every aspect of a font should be accessible in a modern animation software.Please add all OpenType-Options as seen in the Photoshop Character Panel to be natively accessible in After Effects.
Hi,I ABSOLUTELY need to reopen a project created under AFX 24.1 (because of CINEWARE), but this version is not accessible via Adobe Creative Cloud.How can I retrieve it, please?This is very important and quite urgent… :(Thank you in advance if you can help me!
Recently, After Effects seems to want an demand more RAM from my PC whereas before I would be able to do the work I needed to do and even sometimes more advanced ones without a hitch but now even a small animation seems to not work. Before my CPU upgrade, I was even able to have a couple tabs on FireFox playing but now even with everything turned off it seems to struggle immensely and introduce a lot of lag spikesI recently upgrade my CPU from the Ryzen 3600 to a 5700X while keeping my 32gb RAM and RTX 3060 while also made the jump from Windows 10 to 11. I never had this kind of issue before and I was wondering why does After Effects wants more now compared to before when I clearly made an objectively good upgrade for the sake of performance
Create symmetrical "smart" guides. Would be helpful if you can hold option+drag from the ruler to create a "smart" guide (maybe in red) that automatically mirrors from the opposite side as well. I'm constantly having to make sure assets are center-aligned on screen and regular guides aren'’t any help in this scenario. If a mirrored guide line was able to be pulled in from the same distance on both sides that would increase my workflow.
Previously requested but wanted to add a few addendums to this really desired item:Love the increasing native 3D capabilities of After Effects and I really wish the workflow of nesting compositions to build complex animations was reflected in the new Advanced 3D renderer. I would love to be able to select or reference a composition from the project panel to be used as a 3D layer's texture.As an animator / designer for screens for live events, we often use After Effects not only to build out large pieces of content (multiple synchronous 4K+ feeds) but also to previsualize in real-time what our content will look like. This is super helpful because we don't have to round-trip still frames or large renders between AE and another DCC. However, creating these previsualization setups can take a large amount of time, much of which having compositions UV-mapped onto 3D objects would save an immense amount of time. For instance, for a curved screen we often are cutting up a composition into mult
