Ive been using the "convert to a AE comp" in premier for along time with no issues, however suddenly(perhaps an update?) when I use this it will open AE and create a comp however the timeline will be empty, where it used to put the media into the comp.
This is a new bug that showed up after my software did an auto update (After Effect 25.6) over the weekend. Now, when I "Replace with After Effects Composition" in Premiere and go to the new comp in AE, any editing I try to perform on the new comp (add text, create mask, etc.) causes a jump to a previous comp that is open on the timeline. If I go back to the new comp that was just created I can't edit the new comp (Jumps to previous comp) without closing AE and reopning. This happens every time I "Replace with After Effects Composition" in Premiere. After Effect 25.6Premiere 25.5MacOS 15.6.12019 Mac Pro
The text editing panel in the After Effects Properties Panel (when text has been set up as an essential property) is a fixed height of about 2.5 lines tall. Premiere's Properties panel shows three full lines. (This appears to be the visible amount of text regardless of display settings, though I won't pretend I did exhaustive research here.) These work ok in many cases, but for templates where longer text will be the norm, it makes it fiddly and annoying for the end user to work with text in this small space, and means they generally can't see all of it at once without copy/pasting from another app. I'd love the ability to establish a specific height for the text editing area for the end user - perhaps a setting could be added in the existing Edit Properties pop-up? An editable height value / number of visible lines would allow for excellent customization, and could allow for a reduction in screen real estate for templates that would never use more than a single line!
In a lot of Adobe programs, you can hold "option" (on mac) and drag a shape or layer to duplicate it. Except for AE, this is however a very fast and interactive way to duplicate something that could even be applied to effects, keyframes, etc. Here is a demo video of how this would work: https://vimeo.com/137401276
The text in error messages is kind of 'dead'. When we need it to report an issue, its a pain. Please make this text selectable and copyable.
Windows has a surprisingly low file path character limit. When Collecting files, it's nice that the (Footage) folder mimics the Project Panel folder structure, but It'd be nice to have the option to place all assets in a single root folder.I'm often deep in a directory when unzipping a collected project. The depth of the heirirchy within the project file makes sense, but when mapped to a folder structure blows past the file size limit causing headaches. I don't often need the folder structure to mimic the project file, so it feels like paths are artifically long causing headaches for a seemingly niche benefit.When working with others or in a location with many projects, moving a project file extract location isn't feasible and would impact other user on the system. Considering it's unlikely microsoft will change this limit anytime soon, I am suggesting these fixes. An option to place all files in a single folder (easy) or sort by file type/extension (moderate) or compress the file
Meu After e meu Photoshop estão com esse bug, ao clicar com o mouse em algumas áreas, simplesmente não abre e fica bugando o clique. O bug acontece apenas nos aplicativos, no computador, navegador e outros problemas não acontece, estão normais. Tenho todos os drivers atualizados, tudo atualizado.
Hi everyone!How can I remove the halo that appears around the subtitles? The glow effect is applied, but it looks like this when I export. It's not as noticeable in the preview, but it's there when I export. Is there a way to fix it?Thank you so much for your help. I've attached a screenshot of the issue.
I am animating a graph so the lines travel accross the screen at the same time. They need to go at the same point accross the screen even though they are different lengths in total. I have attached an example of where I'm up to - I have the pink and green dots separate to the lines and I'm using a combination of trim paths, linear wipe and time stretch to acheive this. It is proving quite fiddly and time consuming! Does anyone have a suggestion of how I could do this more easily? Would appreciate any help, thank you.https://vimeo.com/1137417192/6f6ba08e3b?share=copy&fl=sv&fe=ci
So I'm still fairly new to this whole after effects thing and I wanted to put an audio spectrum in my videos, but I don't like how jumpy and how too reactive it is. I want it to be similar like this : Video. I already tried messing around with the settings a bunch of times (like the audio duration and offset and the height and etc.) and searching online and past reddit posts but nothing can seem to quite get it just right.Any help is greatly appreciated!
Hi everyone, Does anyone knows if there is a way to offset layers and keyframe with the same value?I explain : sometimes, when you need to add more time at a certain point of a composition you need to push further some layer blocks AND also only push some keyframes on a layer (most of the time this layer is my camera for example).As you cannot select and push layers and keyframes selected at the same time here is why i ask. I can do it manually with two selection steps but it can lead to mistakes in my count of keyframes to add. And also as it is a matter of timing, i need to try and see with more ease. I've send a visual example if it's not clear. Thanks
Hi, I'm trying to figure out one issue and unsuccessfully, so I'm turning my question to you. I have layers for eyes, for this problem mainly Pupils - Iris - White as picturesPupils are in Iris and Iris in White. However the Iris slightly overlaps the White and if I put Pupils into the overlaping area, they are visible, which is not wanted factor as next picture I'v tried to find a solution online, but non of them worked for me. It¨s like I need mainly the Pupils to be in the Iris (which is working) and secondary in the White (which I dont know how to do) Thanks for your time
this funny error message pops up when I double-click on a texte layer to select directly a single word.Apparently the text tool doesn't like to be too fast at clicking. I just click OK and i can go on.If i just click once to "enter" on the texte layer to select text, nothing happen and i can continue to double or triple-click to select texts. PS. My app is in french language. The message is not translated.AE 25.5.0 — Mac Studio M1 Max — 32Go RAM — 130Go free disk space — Macos Tahoe 26.0.1 (25A362)
Hey guys,Still somewhat new to after effects - and when I download templates off the internet I get an error message saying I'm missing the "Fill" plug-in. I've done some research and one place I looked said it is a default plug-in and I'm also finding it come up on Google as RE: Fill which is like $100. Do I need to pay for the plug-in or is it a default and not showing up for me for some reason? If so, are there any fixes to this?Thanks in advance for any answers and helping me past this confusion.
Yup. A search box will be good for the Prefs - quicker to get to the right settings as well as perhaps finding related settings - imagine finding a setting you never knew existed but would greatly enhance your user-experience.
I have the problem that when i add Twixtor on some clips, they glitch at some points and turn green or black for a short time. My theory is that it is only occuring on Clips with much motion and Ive heard that I just have to put the Motion Sensitivity lower but its not helping. Ive also checked that the input fps are adjusted to the input clip. Also there is no difference between putting it on an adjustment layer or the pre composed clip itself.Any ideas??
When clearing the disk cache using app.executeCommand, After Effects should also display a confirmation warning.Specifically, when calling app.executeCommand(10200), the disk cache is cleared immediately without any warning, unlike when a user triggers the same action through the UI or a keyboard shortcut. This behavior can lead to accidental cache deletion and feels unfriendly to users.I would greatly appreciate it if a confirmation dialog could be added for this command as well.
Conclusion: ExtendScript needs an update, and Adobe should officially publish its type definitions. Why has ExtendScript not been updated?Right now, ExtendScript is still based on ES3, an extremely outdated JavaScript standard. Expressions, on the other hand, have been properly modernized and now support ES2020-level syntax. If Expressions can be updated, shouldn’t ExtendScript be modernized as well?Yes, updating ExtendScript may break backward compatibility and cause some existing scripts to stop working. However, ExtendScript also contains many long-standing bugs—such as issues with the conditional operator—that would be better off fixed even if it means some adjustments for script authors. In addition, why does Adobe still not publish official type information for ExtendScript (such as .d.ts files)?The community is collecting type information through steady efforts, but there is still a lot of missing type information.Types-for-Adobehttps://github.com/docsforadobe/Types-fo

Hello Adobe Support Team,I am experiencing an issue in After Effects 25.6 when working with 3D layers and multiple screen views (Active Camera + Custom View).

Have seperated all my files in illustrator but when I import into after effects, only some of the layers are imported from the artwork. There is no error message they just will not be added for some reason?
Can you stop installing crapware on my systems. I don't want Cinema 4D on my system. My hard drive space is for me not Adobe!!!!
Hello. We know that every property has some data type return.position returns array of length 2.rotation returns a number.my question is can I make a psodu effect that can return string, arrays, or any data type that I want?
You know how awesome Compound Blur is? I want that power everywhere. That is, it would be extremely powerful to be able to switch a parameter to be "driven by" another layer. You would set your minimum and maximum values and pick the layer it's pointed to. Just like how Compound Blur blurs more or less depending on the luminance, this would drive whatever the parameter was by the luminance of the referenced layer. (You could also include the ability to posterize it and soften it.) Oh, and the min and max values would be keyframeable too, of course. Some use cases: Drive the complexity of a Fractal Noise layer by a depth map. So you have big fog up close and denser, more complex fog the further away it is. Some very cool, stylized effects by driving the size of the Venetian Blinds effect by footage. The size/density of CC Ball Action balls Mosiac sizes Glow size and intensity being driven by a different layer would be neat Stylized directional blurs where the blur
