After Effects

Estoy escribiendo y cuando quiero hacer que el texto vaya hacia abajo simplemente me desaparece…No tengo mucho más para describir.   

I am developing a script for After Effects that launches a small window and lets the user generate various compositions. I want to include a small image of a company logo on the window: One version that works with a light color theme and a different version that works with After Effects’ dark color themes. However, what ExtendScript code can I use to detect the currently active theme (e.g. ‘light’, ‘dark’ or ‘darkest’?)I’ve scoured forums and Github for answers but I’ve not found anything yet that works.

I am an AE plugin developer. With this new MacOS update to Tahoe (or maybe it's the upgrade to AE2026) my customers aren't able to load my plugins via Mediacore, it only works in the Plug-ins folder.Does anyone know how to solve this?

Hi use creative cloud desktop to do a free trial on adobe after effect and I want to cancel the plan but when I go to my account it doesn't show so I don't know what to do. I tried to contact adobe but I don't know how and everytime I search for their contact I get a link to a virtual assistance. I didn't use my card to do the free trial so was wondering when the free trial is done will i not get charge due to me not using my card? Pls help thank you

Hello. Recently Ive encountered a serious issue with the After Effects interface. It becomes extremely laggy after any click or action. The problem appears randomly - sometimes the program opens and works fine, but most of the time it freezes constantly.Interestingly, if I move the program window to my second monitor, the issue disappears completely.I’ve already tried the following:Updated and rolled back GPU drivers (twice),Reinstalled After Effects,Removed all third-party plugins,Changed monitor refresh rateSometimes the issue temporarily goes away if I switch between fullscreen and windowed mode, but it always comes back eventually.

Hallo liebes Forum,ich habe leider ein kleines Problem. Mein After Effects lässt sich nicht mehr öffnen. Ich bekomme jedes mal wieder eine Fehlermeldung, dass das Programm "beschädigt" sei. Ich habe es schon mehrmals (de-)installiert und auch verschiedene Versionen schon ausprobiert. Es funktioniert leider gar nichts. Ich hoffe ihr könnt mir weiterhelfen und würde mich über jede Hilfe freuen!LG

I was working 30 minutes ago, everything was ok. I tried to log in to continue working, but I got this window (screenshot). I tried reinstalling with saved settings, but it didn't help.I also tried this instruction - https://community.adobe.com/questions-529/after-effects-can-t-continue-an-unexpected-error-has-occurred-and-after-effects-will-now-shutdown-56063.This also didn't solve the problem. All folders have the appropriate permissions.This is annoying because I didn't change anything in the files or settings. All I did was open another guy's project, then close it without saving. That was the last successful launch of AE.I also installed a few fonts from Envato.What could have damaged AE?Latest version of AE installed. And latest version of MacOS. Macbook Pro M1.

Is Adobe ever going to stop making their apps worse? Every f* day I'm spending more time troubleshooting than working. The slowdown is literally costing me money because your business plan seems to be "Let's justify the subscription model and abusive cancellation practices by rushing out a new version every year" Your priorities are an absolute joke! People don't want crappy new AI tools that slow down the whole app, they want reliability! I know this isn't how you report a bug, but what does it even matter any more? If you actually did fix a bug there's countless more and you will never fix them before moving them along to the next major release.  I'm struggling to do my job because you can't do yours. After nearly 20 years of being an Adobe customer I cannot wait to leave this ridiculous company and its staggering incompetence behind

The red CTI (Current Time Indicator) suddenly stops at unexpected moments. Additionally while playing back with a buggy red line the viewport zoom stops working, but that is just extra information. This bug doesn't affect anything except the red line and zoom. I can still see the video and hear the audio. However, it's really annoying because you notice the timeline stopping while the animation keeps playing which feels out of sync. I've read every possible forum about this bug. Many users report it happening when After Effects and Premiere Pro are open together or when using Dynamic Link. The problem is I've never used Dynamic Link, I always render animations as mov-files and import them into Premiere Pro manually. System Specs:- CPU: Intel Core i7-12700K.- RAM: KingBank SharpBlade 6000 MHz 64 GB.- Primary Drive (OS/Software): NVMe SSD Lexar ARES 2 TB.- OS: Windows 11 24H2 build 26100.2605.- GPU: RTX 4070 Ti Super based on Studio driver version 566.36. Important No

Create a comp with one layer and expose the layer’s position as an essential property Put that comp into the main comp and animate the exposed essential position property. Try to copy paste one of those keyframes → works Now create a similar comp but having the position separated (separate x/y coords) and expose these separate x and y coords as essential properties Put that comp in the main comp and again animate the position (now via separate x and y coords). Try to copy/paste one of those keyframes → does not work (nothing happens on paste)Reproducible also in test project with freshly created comps that just represent the above setup.Example project attached…  System InfoAfter Effects: Version 26.0.0 (Build 67)macOS: 15.7.4 (24G517) 

I am familiar with Premiere and am learning the basics of AE and my brain is having a hard time transitioning, and I have some basic questions:1. Are there any issues if you establish the Composition Settings before you start a project in AE vs. if you just drag graphics into the timeline animate them, and later go and change the resolution, frame rate and duration in the Composition Settings afterwards?My composition/project has a duration of 30 seconds based on what I entered in the settings, and the graphic I dragged in also has this duration and I already animated it, though I am trying to shorten the duration it displays. I am having a hard time dragging the end of the file in the timeline to the left to shorten it. I also do not see a way to change the duration in Properties for the graphic so I can just manually enter time code for it. I have other layers in the Timeline and I want the entire video to have a duration of 30 seconds, though the graphic I am trying to shorten will

Stuck, downloaded adobe and set my account up, went to download after effects, its gave me the prompt to download it on my Home Screen, opened it, it automatically does it through the creative cloud and then brings up a box and says enter password, which I do but it “shakes’ and indicates I'm using the wrong password and I'm not, I'm very confused and was wondering has anyone had the same problem before, yes I've already logged in and out of everything multiple times with no luck, please help 

Hi,I want to animate only X of Scale properties of the white rectangle. But I notice a tiny movement in Y axis as well. I set the anchors perfectly. I dnt want any movement in Y axis. Please guide me. I tried both keeping the constrain and breaking it too. in both case the Y axis moves. 😣 

Hello,After launching After Effects 2026, pressing the Spacebar does not start preview playback.While holding down the Spacebar, the Hand Tool becomes active temporarily. When I release the Spacebar, it switches back to the Selection Tool. However, playback never starts.  What I checked Verified Keyboard Shortcuts settings Checked the Preview panel configuration Confirmed no custom key remapping Searched for similar cases online All settings appear to be configured correctly.From what I found, this issue does not seem to affect many users and may be specific to my system.I have attached a sample video demonstrating the issue.I would appreciate any guidance or a fix in an upcoming update.Thank you.

My IT Manager mentioned that Mocha AE may introduce a vulnerability on my MacBook Pro and has advised me to remove it. Before doing so, I would like to confirm whether removing all Mocha AE–related plugins could cause Adobe After Effects to crash or generate errors.

The question is above : ) Thanks! 

I had this perfect footage with perfect colors and quality however when i imported into ae it has changed now it looks like mud. I've changed the working colors setting as gemini advised me yet it didnt change anything 

To Adobe Developer Support Team,I hope you are doing well. I am writing to request assistance and official documentation regarding the correct way to build an After Effects plugin from scratch, especially for After Effects 2025/2026 (v25+ / v26).OverviewI am currently developing a custom rendering plugin intended to integrate with Adobe After Effects. We have set up the following: A native C++ plugin project in Visual Studio A Rust-based rendering engine compiled as a DLL A Windows .aex plugin built as a native x64 DLL Resources compiled using a .rc and .pipl file Compilation against the latest AE SDK (25.6+) Despite following available SDK examples and developer documentation, the plugin is still being rejected by After Effects with the message:“No loaders recognized this plugin, so the plugin is set to Ignore.”Issue DetailsWe have confirmed that: The .aex file exports a proper EntryPoint symbol. The plugin is built as a native Win32 DLL (not .NET or static lib). Architect

I have recently been experiencing a black screen with the AEUX plugin, which is not working. is there any way to fix it?
