Hello, I need an expression while linking the rotation and position peramiters of two 3D plains to follow to each other. How can I displaice one plain by a single pixel so it doesn't clip in to the other? Many thanks.
In After Effects - I have tried all sugestions that was posted in the community, but nothing worked - can some help I get an error message as 'Analysis solve failed' and then '3D Camera Tracker Layer Size must match composition and use default transform values' I have also attached screenshot of error message. Request some support.
No matter what I delete is dosen't render

Hello! I, and if you search discussions everyone, would love the ability to add a gradient along a stroke that follows the path. Currently, there are lots of hacky ways to do this. Typing in a bunch of ...... and tightly kerning them, 3D stroke, plugins like Thicc Stroke, but nothing native and easy to set up. Pretty please?
I have been on After Effects 25.2 for a while and finally made the jump so I can get that sweet layer offset control that got added. However, an unexpected result is that I am now getting an error message when starting up the program. I've not had Plexus as far as I can remember, maybe at some point long in the past but I definitely have not used it in years and years, I don't own it. I tried installing a demo of Plexus both via Rowbyte's site and AE Scripts, but both installations resulted in the same thing, error persists. When looking at my Library Application Support folder, there is no Plug-ins folder inside my Adobe Common folder. Any thoughts on how I can solve this? It doesn't seem to be impacting the program at all, but every time I launch it this shows up. I am not having this issue on my laptop at home, it's unique to this machine. I keep both machines very evently aligned as far as plugins goes, so if I had at some point installed Plexus here I would hav
Hello community,I have read some posts about this issue, but I still have the problem.After the analysis finishes, I cannot select any point because the red target is not showing. I would like to know if there is another option or workaround I can try.Here is what I’ve already attempted:"Show Layer Controls" is activated.Pre-composing the layer and applying the tracker afterward.Making the layer 3D and then applying the tracker.Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hello, I wonder if anyone could help me. I want to add footage as a texture to the surface of an extruded 3D shape layer. For example, if I have some footage tilted in a 3d plain I can extrude elements from within the footage. Many thanks.
I would like to create a credit roll in AE in which cast members are listed as actor <separator> role pairs, with all pairs horizntally centered and aligned on the separator (probably an ellipsis, but I haven't decided yet). Is there a way to do this without manually shifting each line to get the separators to line up? AE does not seem to have a sophisticated tab feature. And if I did resort to manually shifting each line, what would be the best way to d it?
When opening an After Effects project saved with an english AE, in a German language version, the Fill effect gets reported as missing. (The German version obviously has the “Maske füllen” effect installed) AE Version 25 (German)MacOS 14.7.8 We tried to open the same project with AE 23.x (German) and it worked without problems.
its not about capslock and i deleted and re-downloaded After Effects. still not working
While i was the program suddenly forze, blocking all my computer and forcing me to restart the pc by holding the power button. After that event every time that i try to just open the app my computer stops working: the screen goes completly black and unresponsive, without any blue screen or error pop ups. Even if i manage to close the app before the screen goes black the computer stops working, freezing on my desktop. The crash is not even reported in a Crash log (the log folder for the version 25.4 is empty) I work on an Asus Vivobook pro 15, Windows 11 on the latest version, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 laptop GPU, processor Intel core ultra 7 155H. Everything is updated to the most recent version.
I'm trying to start off small with house mapping. I have a video I made and would like to project it on the door from the side. I can not figure out how to warp the video so it looks flat against the door. I have looked at tons of how to videos and found nothing I can learn from.Can someone help me or if you know a simple how to video that would be great..

I am having the exact same issues. Just navigating the UI causes freezing and the beach ball. MacBook Pro, 64gb RAM, M2 Max Pro and I can't even do basic AE work that was easy and quick to do 10 years ago. Adobe's quality control is absolutely unacceptable.
The options appear but there is nothing at the side to edit does anyone know how to fix this please?
My device is weak and I can't use the 2025 version of the app. I need the 2019 version. If anyone can help, I would be grateful.
I work with dozens of 2d animators (myself included) who would love to make After Effects shape and puppet pin animations a bigger part of our workflow, but we're limited by the current selection tool. When animating a complex shape (or a mesh of puppet pins), it can get quite tedious using the rectangle selection to manually select each group of vertices and pins we want to transform. (I've attached a gif showing how Lasso can be easily twice as fast). Having a Lasso tool (like the one in Photoshop, Illustrator, and Animate) would save us countless hours, help After Effects integrate even more seamlessly with Photoshop & Illustrator, and free us up to create much more complex and beautiful shape, puppet pin, and character animations. Other users have also noted that a lasso selection tool for keyframes in the timeline would also be extremely helpful in their workflows. Thanks for reading, and please upvote if you agree! 🙂 (Kudos

Adobe ponete las pilas. muchas herramientas de IA que nadie pidió pero una herramienta fundamental alta para la mierda.
Hi AE wizards!I am trying to create a simple lowerthird .morgrt with the top text layer and bottom text layer in one text box. So when people use the template to change the text, the text box will resize accoring the whichever text line is longer. Text is left aligned and the height of the box is fixed so only the width needs to adjust to the right. Font size is also not adjustable. I am familiar with the below expressions for a single text layer. I am wondering if it is possible to manipulate this to adjust to two layers instead? Shape layer expressions:Size property:s = thisComp.layer("Firstname Last Name");w=s.sourceRectAtTime().width;h=s.sourceRectAtTime().height;[w,h] Position property:s=thisComp.layer("Firstname Last Name")w=s.sourceRectAtTime().width/2;h=s.sourceRectAtTime().height/2;l=s.sourceRectAtTime().left;t=s.sourceRectAtTime().top;[w+l,h+t] Here is what I have experimented with two layers but I keep getting an error in the expre
Hi, I am in great danger, I need some guidance from seniors. 😥 I have two separate comps. I have animated a particular layers 'position' in one comp. and I want to copy paste those keyframes and want exactly same movement in another comp's another particular layer. But when I copy paste that things get messy. Please tell me how can I solve this. 😥 😥
For some chroma key jobs where Keylight fails, the good old Color Range keyer gets better results. But unfortunately, it is stuck in the 8bit era.Please update it to work with 16bit.
Hello. I've just installed After Effects on a new work computer, and I'm having issues getting the Preview window to play or show anything (see images below - the second one is where I have taken it off full screen then made it full screen again). The preview doen't show when not playing, and doesn't play at all. If I have music and play, I can hear the music play but the timeline won't keep moving along. I've tried all the usual stuff (purge cache, uninstall/reinstall, change system setting to be adjust for best appearance, etc.) but nothing has worked.The audio only has one driver (MME) and doesn't give me the ASIO or any other option. I can export and render without any issues, and when the cursor is over the preview area, the preview tab tells me the info about what is there (where the cursor is). Also, After Effects always freezes on exit, and I have to force quit it (I presume this is related some how?). Thanks

Create a shape and turn the path into bezier points.2.) Selected the new path and toggled points follow nulls.Instead of the nulls appearing in its own layers, they appear in the effects tab instead. Managed to do it correctly before with the nulls showing up, but I don't really understand how it might be appearing in the effects tab instead. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
