After Effects

I've been trying to animate some text to have the Typewriter effect and I can't figure out how to make the animation start at the right of the text but also start with the first letter of my text. For example my text would say "Learn today", I want the animation to start with "L" and move over to the left to make space for the next letters. Right now I managed to start at the right side but in my example it would make the "y" in "today" appear first. Do I need a specific plugin to do this or can it be done with After Effects options ? Any advice would be appreciated.   

dès que je lance l'outil pour supprimer un élément d'une vidéo, soit after effect disparait ou alors me dit que mon dossier de cache disque figure sur un lecteur qui n'a pas suffisament d'espace disponible pour bien stocker la quantité spécifiée dans mes préférences. cependant, j'ai déjà vidé le cache disque et fait de la place sur mon ordinateur qui est puissant et possède de la place. Il a 1 To de place et 32 Go de RAM. que dois je faire ? 

Hi, Im new to using Cinema 4D Lite. When i track a camera in AE, make ground plane, camera and text and the export to Cinema 4D, no track is exportet. When i press play in C4D, my camera just points away from my text, and nothing happens.In AE the tekst does follow the tracked camera though. But I run into problms, when I try and make a plane for catching shadow

Hello,I am looking to start a disk cache cleanup script when closing After Effect.The script is fully functional when I run it from the script executor.However, when it is started at closing, I have the message displayed but nothing happens at the cache.I think the problem is in the window that asks for confirmation before deletion (when it is started manually).Do you have any ideas or solutions?Here is the script (normally valid for CS6, CC) : {app.executeCommand(10200);alert("Clear cache !");}Thank you in advance.Have a good day.Guillaume.

Hi there! First time posting... So I've been having this problem for a couple months now and it all came out of the blue. Anytime that I try send something from AE to Media Encoder or even Premiere, AE will just completely shut down. It will give me an error saying something about a dynamic link issue or a RenderTaskManager error. And a weird thing is that it's not always saying the error in the "After Effects Alert" when it crashes. But it happens EVERY SINGLE TIME without fail and it's really screwing with my workflow. I've looked online to try and find anyone else having this problem, and I haven't found an answer.. So I've come here to get help! This originally happened randomly one day when I was working on AE 2021. So I thought I just needed to update. So I updated my computer to Monterey and updated all of the Adobe applications to 2022. And I'm still having the same problem. I've tried clearing cache and resetting all of that.. Didn't help.. I've tried uninstalling AE

Hola a todos, me están cobrando After Effects a pesar de haber cancelado mi suscripción hace ya 3 meses. A Alguien más le sucedió? Qué hicieron? Gracias

hey guys, i just upgraded to a m3 pro macbook today and transferred my data through migration assistant. it seems like only a few of my after effects plug-ins transferred, and i'm unable to install any new ones or see some of my previously installed ones like sapphire and bcc. does anyone have a fix for this?

I want to know if there's an expression to know the time at which a keyframe is positioned on a timeline (i.e. if a keyframe is at second 2:00, I want an expression telling me that the keyframe's time is 2:00 or its corresponding frame). Can anybody help me, please?

Based on my experience with CC Cylinder, I believe it requires a Control Fold option ranging from -100% to 100%. I'm sure this would significantly enhance its functionality.any chances to achieve that in a future update?

I want to control play and stop preview through scripting? or even detect if ram preview is playing.Thanks very much.

Hi, I convert AI (on the screen EPS, but the same thing with AI) file to shape layers, and make some artifacts as in picture 3, file attached. Thanks for your reply

Last night I set up a render queue with about a hundred comps that are basically the same (a 1m30s text animation, the actual text is only thing difference between the comps). First 50 took about 4 to 5 minutes per comp to render, then it suddenly went up, now taking over 50 minutes for the same kind of comp. There is a green part in the renderbar and the render is still progressing (sometimes showing a lightgreen part in the bar), but checking the info it says 'Concurrent frames rendering: 0 '. This seems incorrect. So my guess is that MFR is where it broke down somehow. But maybe it's something else, I don't know.Anyway, it's now much slower then rendering without MFR (it will render a comp in just under 10 minutes without MFR), defeating the purpose of MFR.At least for now using MFR on a render queue seems unreliable.I'm running AE 24.1.0 on a M2 Ultra Mac Studio, 128GB RAM, macOS 13.6.3.

Hello, I work in localization and my team noticed that AE is not able to render some extended-latin or hindi characters when there is a 3D animation on a text layer. Some characters appear kinda corrupted, only thing that helped so far is to convert the text to shape, sometimes change the font. However, we are obliged to follow brand rules, therefore we can't change the font for final output, and we would like to maintain text editability for future updates. Any chance this visual bug can be fixed? Thanks!

Salut.J’ai mis à jour vers la dernière mise à jour d'after effect 24.0 et depuis lors, je reçois cette erreur lorsque j’essaie d’exporter d’After Effects vers l’encodeur multimédia.5027 :: 12 Plug-in AEGP AEDynamic Link Server : Adobe Media Encoder n’est pas installé. J'ai désinstallé Adobe Media Encoder puis réinstallé mais le problème subsiste. Il n'y a pas de version d'Adobe Media Encoder qui reconnait After Effect 24.0?

in some (often) cases with shape layer with groups (or shape layer created from 'create shape from vector layer') the properties panel behave not it's used to . some kind of bug or something?i know this feature is a newborn . but this is a tusk in a meat. like, it should never happened to begin with. please fix.

This expression works in 2022 but not in AE 2024.. effect("Paramètre glissière")("Curseur")+"$"Waste 1 hour on it. Fix your &?$%%$&& platform that you charge 1000 $ CAD per year

Encounted UI bug while editing expressions, if the text is too big, it create this weird white space 

The last three times I have updated, After Effects has installed two of my largest plugins (Superluminal Stardust and Element 3d) forcing me to go through the tedious process of reinstalling. Why? This hasn't previously been an issue. Now, when I NEED TO WORK RIGHT NOW I am instead, reinstalling plugins. Creative Cloud has been here since 2011. Why is this an issue again?

Hello,I've animated a single long image (PNG) by position only. The image is of a mobile photo feed and I've animated it so that it "scrolls" upward. On the long, single PNG image, photos are laid out, one-by-one, on a dark grey background, with a tiny margin. The photos have a small corner radius. The PNG was created in Figma. In the AE project, the animation looks perfect, yet upon export, when playing the photos, tiny white specks flash around the corners of many of the photos (the white flash takes the shape of the image corner beyond the corner radius to the corner point it would have had, had the corner radius not been there).  Additionally, many of the photos show an animating white strip around the left and right edge of the photos, maybe a pixel or so wide, yet not every single image. Just to reiterate, the images within the single animated PNG are laid out with a solid grey background. The AE composition also has the same color background (not that it shou
