Feature Requests

I'd like to suggest adding a universal search feature in After Effects. This would allow users to quickly locate tools, effects, and settings by typing in keywords, streamlining workflow and improving efficiency.Thanks for considering this enhancement.

The new extended viewer is a great addition to the program, nice being able to see outside of the viewer frame! It would be amazing if this was an option for a 2D workflow, there's definite benefits for being able to have vision of what's outside the frameA workaround for those who like this as well, you can create a simple 3D layer and hide it. It will allow you to still use the draft 3D mode to have the extended view enabled for your 2D layers. Not sure what impact it would have on performance though having 3D enabled!

Allow the separation of dimensions for the Scale transform control. Just like Position does currently.

How come there's no contextual tip to helpfully inform me how to turn off contextual tips? When I am busy, I don't have time to read unnecessary popups. WHY must every Adobe software have this feature, seemingly one that can't be turned off. It frustrates me immensely. 

Idea / UI bugOn opening After Effects the splash screen with the recent projects is too big taking space across two monitors with the 'X' closing window icon being even beyond the 2nd screen so it's not even visible. The main application is placed in Windows properly. It's just the 'recent projects' humongous window shouldn't take all available screen space. It should be compact and stick to main window where the app is launched.Windows 10 Pro, Ae latest Beta (and previous versions too).

For years I've been constantly feeling AE come to a stop, previews cease up and I know from experience that I need to go Purge>All Memory and disk cache. Could AE not be more proactive here and monitor the cache, and ideally delete on-the-fly in the order of oldest? 

Make it so that elements from the CC Library are connected to the project as a link and the ability to embed if necessary as it is implemented for Illustrator.

Two quick suggestions to improve rotobrush, especially for projects that are using it a lot. 1) Have an indication in the Effects Controls panel to show if the rotobrush has been frozen or not.  This makes it easier to see if a layer is frozen without having to open the rotobrush in the layer window 2) Be able to queue up / batch freeze multiple rotobrush layers, preferably in the background. A sort of "render queue" but for rotobrush layers...

I think it would be nice to have a mark or slight highlight of the composition you have active in the Project panel. Sometimes when you have a lot of comps in the project and you want to find a comp is hard to find, a little visual mark would be very handy. Something like this:   

Add "CapCut" Stickers, like animated hand-drawn arrowheads, circles, etc. to After Effects - clients are asking for them, and they are very handy, quick, scalable and easy to overlay on top of an image.

I have been researching how to containerize After Effects rendering nodes since last year. During that time, I happened to come into contact with Azure's App Service. I believe that Microsoft Azure's support for Windows containers should be the most comprehensive among all the competitors. So, I decided to try it out, and the process went smoothly. It was quite easy to deploy our rendering nodes to the cloud 🙂 Since the deployment and setup process were not too complicated, I decided to turn this whole process into a small GitHub project this year, making it convenient for others in need to use. In the future, if Microsoft Azure introduces other products that better support the use of Windows containers, I can continue to research these new products to see if they can be more seamlessly integrated with AE. https://github.com/theringe/winae

The Paint Bucket is an unsung and underused hero in After Effects. It's very handy to grab a quick section of a layer with the Stencil Alpha feature. It'd be really handy if we could punch multiple holes in a layer with a Silhouette Alpha mode as well.Please add that to the list of options in Paint Bucket.

I need to turn off the scroll wheel zooming in After Effects. If I am looking at a Comp window and I scroll with my mouse, the view zooms in or out. I don't want to do this, especially because I have a Magic Mouse and any stray movement suddenly zooms my window. It's a realy problem. Can I turn this "feature" off?iMac i7 running Mac OS X 10.6.2

Onion skinning built into After effects

I come from older versions of Hitfilm Express, I started using After Effects recently and just realized this software doesn't have a way of changing scale, position, rotation of masks using numerical values. Please add this feature, I used to always use the parameters and it's so much more precise to use! I don't understand why we should be limited to moving and scaling the mask by hand.

Dear Adobe After Effects team,could you make all the layers, which are imported and used in the AE project, be dragged (copied), for example, to a new folder (with the same name as the project) next to the saved AE project? That way, we wouldn't have to waste time (and nerves) and search for a file when we move it or change its name.It's as if we immediately "Collect files" of all files and fonts that are in the project. Or put it as an option when saving and closing the AE project? And that everything is automatically updated when the same project is opened.Thanks and best regards,Marija 

It's not uncommon to open a old AEP with stuff in the EGP. Then, it's even more common to forget WTF a property is, in the EGP. Or at times, you may receive an AEP with stuff in the EGP and an alien with little to no human contact had worked on the EGP - I'm sure this has happened! I googled and received tons of results! So, for the love of HAIR , sanity and Thick, Juicy Burgers. it will be really, really, really useful to be able to select a prop in the Timeline and have the option for Reveal In EGP.

Instead of appending ' Outlines' to the end of every layer created using 'Create Shapes from Vector Layer', just keep the original name from the Vector Layer.  Or make this an option.   If we've done the extra work to name our layers in Illustrator before improting into After Effects, let us maintain that naming without having to rename every layer again once we create shape layers to remove the ' Outlines'.

Hello. Please, is it possible to add a setting with a checkmark REC709-A to After Effects, by analogy as implemented by DaVinci Resolve for MacOs? So that the color is the same in After Effects and MacOS environment. I work with ProRes 422, 422HQ. And the color difference after rendering is driving me crazy! I really hope this problem can be solved.

Hi all,I feel like this would be a great use of generative fill. Currently, warp stabilizer crops an image to stabilize it. Imagine if instead generative fill was used to fill in the edges. I feel like the technology is basically there, from what was demonstrated at Max last year. As a documentarian, where often conditions aren't great, this would be a game changer. (as would be using AI to remove low-light noise.)What do you all think?Cheers,Pete

Clearly the annual release cyclce is too much for the team.  There are bugs that have persisted for at least the 11 years I've been using AE, we request new features that never get implemented, all we get is a slower version each year.  I update because I HAVE to (as clients I work with are always on the latest version), but I do so with a sigh, like "I wonder what they've broken this time".   For personal projects I'm several versions back - closer to when it worked (but not quite) I say focus on quality of quantity. 

In the import dialogue box, when importing a specific layer as Footage, it would be nice to be able to choose MULTIPLE layers at once. This sounds really basic, as though we should just import the file as a composition, but often I have already imported a .psd as a composition and then I add a few layers to the .psd file and would like to import only those new layers to add to the existing composition. As it works now, I have to either import those new layers one by one, or I have to import a second version of the composition, which just creates more of a mess. Thank you!

When working in After Effects, it can be difficult keeping track of multiple components within a single layer because there isn't a way to define what the components are named. This makes organizing projects, editing over time and generally sharing motion graphics files for other editors, difficult. Instead of easily being able to change keyframes, each layer becomes an investigation. It would be great to have the simple function of renaming layers extend to within a layer contents.

When duplicating a (pre)composition and editing the duplicated (pre)composition, the original composition is also being edited for some reason. Ways to reproduce:1. Add some footage or add a shape to create a layer in the timeline.2. Select the layer in the timeline and precompose it (⇧⌘C)3. Duplicate the new composition (⌘D).4. Double click the duplicated composition to open it.5. Edit the duplicated composition.6. Exit the duplicated composition.7. The original composition is edited the same way as the duplicated one.   Please fix this issue or, at the very least, provide a command to duplicate a composition and make it independant (duplicate it in the project (source) panel as well). CommandShortcutDuplicate⌘DDuplicate (make independant)e.g. ⌃⌘D
