Question

"additional "preview window is half way of the working area during previews in After Effects CC 2020

Hi, i havent found any solution to this on the internet yet.

I have worked with out any problem until a week ago. When i try to preview my scenes a "new" preview window appears and is "off center" and it plays in real time with out lagging.  Sometimes that new "window" is not even visible (depens on how much you have zoomed into the scene) adn the original workspace area is just static. I hope my screenshots makes the matter more clear, since it is hard to explain in words. Also, sliding the current time indicatior manually works - Then the "real" preview window is showing what it should.

 

If you need any further information, please ask! Also, thanks in advance!

 

My specs are:

Macbook Pro mid 2012

OS: Catalina 10.15

2,5 GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i5

16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

Intel HD Graphics 4000 1536 MB

500 gb SSD - Sata

After Effects CC 2020 (17.0(?))

This seems to be a bug in the new AE2020 - there are several reports of it since two days.
