When using the clone stamp tool in Photoshop, after you select the source, there is a faint image of the source location that is projected into the destination brush. This is fantastic for creating clean clone stamps! But this is not available in the rotopaint clone stamp in After Effects--where it's even more important when doing footage cleanup/object removal. Would you consider implementing this feature in After Effects? Is the AFX software capable of implementing this or is it only possible to code this in Photoshop?
[Upvote if you liked the idea!]Hello, I use time remape with loopOut().But always I find that the last keyframe is at unactive time(frame), and that leaves an extra frame that is black at the end of the looping.So I was wondering why aftere effects devs still leaves it, I don't see any reason for creating the last keyframe at exactly the end of the comp, even though the end won't show any frames.I hope this change in the next after effects version.what changes basicly?when activating the time remaping at any layer, the last keyframe is on the real last frame, and no any extra frames when using loopOut().Thank you for reading!
Is it possible to sync stacks between devices in Lightroom CC. I don't mean the photos, I mean the fact they are in a stack. I sorted loads of photos into stacks on my Mac and figured they'ed be stacked on my iPad but they are not.
I'm in the early stages of developing a substance painter plugin using 11.03 that tries to duplicate a reference texture with the asset directory of the user. It looks like the API's able to create a layer, but it doesn't seem like assigning a .sbsar file to a layer. I can't seem to populate a resource of any kind to a newly created layer. Implementing this feature could make for some really cool processes. And with the future of the API in mind, it'd be nice if the API could also adjust the color of materials, roughness, if they have normal maps, etc. I think the more I can do with the API the more fleshed out we can develop. Forgive me if this is already a feature, but I can't seem to find this ability anywhere.
Dear Adobe Team,I’m a 6th Senior and aspiring creator from India who’s passionate about animation, storytelling, and educational content. I’ve been using free tools like Cavalry, Natron, and HitFilm Express to bring history, and mapping.But there’s one tool that feels like the ultimate dream: After Effects.It’s powerful, iconic, and perfect for animating numbers, overlays, and transitions. The only problem? It’s locked behind a paywall that many students like me simply can’t afford.So here’s my humble request:🎓 Make After Effects free for students.Or at least offer a limited free version for educational use. We’re not asking for all the bells and whistles—just enough to learn, experiment, and grow.Adobe, you’ve inspired generations of creators. Help us become the next wave.Sincerely,IvaanCreative Mapper, Visual Thinker.
Right now there’s no way in Premiere Pro to know how much time I actually spent working on a project. I’d love to see a feature that adds a built‑in active editing timer. Here’s what it could do:Count time only when there’s real user activity (mouse clicks, keyboard shortcuts, timeline edits, dragging, etc.).Automatically pause tracking when there’s no interaction.Show the total active editing time per project, and ideally break it down by editing sessions.Maybe allow an exportable report for freelancers, teams, or personal productivity tracking.This would give editors an accurate picture of their workflow and help with billing, scheduling, and productivity. Third‑party trackers exist, but an integrated solution inside Premiere Pro would be far more precise and convenient.
Hey, I have really annoying trouble with the speed of loading Lightroom's previews.My System:Macbook Pro M1 Max 32GB RAMMy Camera:Nikon Z7III'm a professional photographer who switched from CaptureOne but Lightroom is starting to annoy me really bad here.I know the filesize of the Nikon's RAWs is hefty but my computer should be capable of dealing with them.My process for each job: Make a new Catalog. Copy the files (mostly around 600-800 photos) to a folder. Import to Lightroom. Create a basic look, copypaste on all images, start making the selection.Whenever I'm in library mode, all the photos that are "in frame" get a preview loaded. Whatever is not in frame keeps the embedded preview until I select the photo or scroll to it in library mode. This is really really annoying for culling photos as there's a LOT of stuttering and loading while going through the photos. I even started using photo mechanics for culling photos when I'm in a hurry because Lightroom lets me down on speed.So I found the option of exchanging the embedded previews with the "real" previews when idle. I checked it and absolutely nothing changes.Why doesn't Lightroom load the previews when importing or when applying the look to all the photos? I'd much rather have a little loading bar on the top left telling me when my previews are rendered. While that my system would be a little bit slowed down finishing that I'd have a workable environment.Capture One does that for example and I think it's the only viable option for professionals.Did I just miss something or is Lightroom simply not able to create previews in the background? Or do I have to manually tell lightroom to reload the previews every time I apply the same look to say 250 photos?Also: When I paste a look with cmd - shift - v, it sometimes takes 2 or 3 times pressing the buttons until it is understood by lightroom I want to paste the settings. This is also really annoying and I think it has to do with Lightroom not having loaded a "real" preview yet and is still in the process of exchanging the embedded preview.Any thoughts on how to fix these issues, Lightroom team? Maybe it's my fault but if not I'll probably swith back to Capture because it's not fit for professional use.Cheers!
Lightroom CC and Keywords. It appears that the CC version only has limited support for keywords. For those of us who have spent years collecting or building controlled vocabularies, this would be a critical requirement and is a potential game-changer in respect of migrating to the CC version. Dealing with 10,000 bird species in a variety of languages including scientific binomials ain't going to be fun in a flat keyword list. I recognise that for people who only want 'blue', 'sky', 'holiday' this won't be important, but for digital asset management it is pretty up there.Support for a continuation of hierarchical controlled vocabularies would be much appreciated.
please add Shortcuts for Presets it takes so much time to do it manually( transitions, effects, anything)
Our company uses Dropbox for all file storage and collaboration. Each project is saved in its own structured Dropbox folder. When exporting assets, we want to ensure they stay within the correct project folder — but currently, Adobe apps (like XD, Illustrator, etc.) default to the last-used export folder, which often results in assets being exported to the wrong location, overwritten files, broken file links, etc.This affects efficiency and increases the chance of user error, especially in team environments.It would be great if files exported by default to the intended folder, or if a preference was allowed (either globally or per app)Thank you!
macOS has long had the feature and Premiere has up until recently supported this where I can edit the name an item in the project window and hold down the option key and use the arrow keys to select whole words at a time. Premiere for the most part is very usable with a keyboard, but after reinstalling Premiere, the issue still persists. I tested the feature in the text box to enter this bug report and it’s definitely working within macOS, but no longer in Premiere. I often have long file names to edit when duplicating sequences, so this is a burden now.Premiere: V 25.5.0 (Build 13)macOS 14.7.8
Hello Adobe Team, I would like to suggest an enhancement for the Filter panel in Adobe Bridge. Currently, when navigating folders or viewing search results, all filter selections reset, even if some items exist in the new location.It would be useful if Bridge could remember the on/off state of items that are present in the new folder or search results, while ignoring items that do not exist. Ideally, this behavior could be controlled with a preference checkbox at the bottom of the Filter panel, allowing users to enable or disable it as needed. Benefits:Reduces repetitive toggling when moving between folders or search results.Keeps user selections consistent for smoother workflow.Gives users control to opt in or out of this behavior. Thank you for considering this improvement.
Not sure if this is a bug or a long-term feature request - admins feel free to place this in the appropriate category My Rig:Premiere Pro 25.5.0 Build 13Mac Studio M2 Ultra64GB Ram 1TB internal storage My goal: I like to use 4k multicam source sequences in my 1080p timelines, as it allows me to dynamcially zoom/pan the cameras for added effect when appropriate. In multicam preview mode, I would like the preview monitors to respect the resolution and scaling of the timeline being edited. it seems that the preview monitors honor the scaling of the source multicam sequence regardless of how it is scaled in the main timeline. If my 4k footage is scaled to 50% on a 1080p timeline, the preview monitors should reflect that for all camera angles. (see attached screenshot) Weirdly enough, the main monitor in multicam preview seems to "snap" to the resolution once playback is stopped, so it seems there is some logic in the code to read this - it is just not being applied to the other preview camera views. This is more of an annoyance than a workflow stopper, but I wonder if there is a setting to fix this. Any suggestions? Andre
Request Summary: Add an option to define the amount of time left between sentences when deleting pauses via the transcript pauses filter.Details: Currently, when deleting pauses using the Text-Based Editing tool, Premiere Pro removes silence entirely and ripples the timeline, leaving no gap between sentences. This can make edits sound abrupt or unnatural, especially in interviews, narration, podcasts, or tutorial content.Feature Proposal:Allow users to set a fixed duration (e.g. 1.5 seconds) to be inserted automatically on both sides (ie. leaving 0.75 seconds of the clip on each side of the extraction) of a deleted pause.This setting could live in the Transcript panel options, alongside the current “minimum pause length” detection setting.Why This Matters:Helps preserve natural speech rhythm and pacingReduces need for time-consuming manual nudgingIncreases usability for creators handling long-form content, podcasts, interviews, or auto-generated narrationThis feature would greatly speed up workflows and improve output quality for many editors using AI-assisted transcripts. Thank you for considering this!
In Text to Avatar when the video is generated there should be a couple of seconds at the end to conclude the statement. In my generated video the avatar ends paused with thier mouth open and it seems awkward.
I would like a feature to remove dark circles, a skin cleansing option, and a background remover.
I love the capability that this gives. I've been using RAY3 and it's great (HDR version is terrible though). The UI isn't very useable though, clicking the video thumbnails replace the settings and prompt which means I've accidentally overwritten recent changes. The prompt box is way too small and should be resizable as prompts can very very long. Overall, it feels half-baked and cramped. It would be much better if each itteration was a separate entity rather than them all in one filmstrip.
I've done some searching and I'm finding it hard to beleive that the clunkiness of organizing and editing RAW + JPG images has never really been improved over the years. Most users are just finding "workarounds" for LR shortcomings. When treating RAW + JPG as separate photos (which I am doing) why can't I have the pairs properly stacked? Auto stack by capture time (set to zero seconds) does not work because of burst shooting. Why can't there be an "Auto-Stack by File Name" or "Auto-Stack RAW + JPG"? My preferred workflow sometimes for would be to sort/edit through a gallery of JPG's and have the RAW handy in the stack in case I need to pull more dynamic range or white balance on a specific shot. So far this isn't possible without manually creating your stacks, or fixing the stacked burst sequences. Seems like a simple thing that can be implemented. Even a simple check box in the already existing "Auto-Stack" dialoge for stacking JPG pairs would be so simple.
Why can't you merge clips in different tracks with only one command? I don't mean mixing different tracks into a new file. What I mean is, for instance, I have two clips in each track and I want to make it one single merged clip in each track. If I select them all and hit Ctrl+K, Audition says it's not able to merge clips not in the same track. I have to make a selection in a single track, merge it and then move to next track and so on. That's annoying. I don't want to merge clips vertically, I want to select clips and merge them horizontally regardless of how many track I select. Is there already a way to do that? If not, there should be.
Currently, we are only allowed to have two devices under one CC subscription. This is a policy issue and not a feature issue. i have one dedicated workstation at the office, one dedicated workstation at home, and a high-end laptop for traveling. It's okay to login in/out as there is only one user per subscription, but it is unnecessary waste of time to deactivate my account on one system in order to then activate my account on another system for a period for of time, then deactivate the system to return to one of my other two systems. Adobe will not lose subscription dollars, because this community of three device owners will not pay for another subscription - it's just not worth the extra expense, yet there is customer d-sat/frustration. Please change the rules and allow three devices - you will make many pro customers happier.I have been using Adobe products for 25+ years and I'm loyal to Adobe's products. Please support me and other dedicated users. This sentiment has been in community circles for years - please listen and help. We are not trying to scam the subscription process, and I'm good with only one concurrent user, but we are professionals who have more than two devices. it will take nominal dev effort since you are already tracking two devices to allow a third device. It will be a straightforward solution that will greatly help us with current logistical subscription management. Please make it easier for us. Thank you.
Introduce a “solo” toggle next to the stopwatch of keyframeable properties (e.g., Position, Scale, Rotation, Opacity) within the Timeline. This toggle would function similarly to the existing layer Solo feature.Functionality:When a property is soloed:Only soloed properties will animate.All other animated properties on that layer will be temporarily disabled (their keyframes remain untouched, just inactive for playback and preview).Soloed properties remain active during rendering/export, allowing isolated animation passes if needed.Multiple properties can be soloed at once, across the same or multiple layers — exactly like layer soloing.This feature enhances workflow focus, especially when fine-tuning easing curves or timing for a specific property without distraction from others. Why It’s Needed:In complex animations, multiple properties often have overlapping keyframes, cluttering the timeline and complicating the animation process.Users frequently need to refine one property at a time (e.g., adjusting Position bezier handles without Scale influencing the motion).
Dear Adobe,As the tool description you wrote says, please make the Direct Selection Tool select ONLY anchor points and segmants and NOT the entire shape/object.The reason one uses this tool is to make such adjustements. I accidentally select and move the entire shape multiple times when editing anchor points, before finally being able to move the point I want. One simple change > Massive workflow speed improvement and less frustration.WIn-Win!
