BTW - this update seems to break keyframe double clicking: Double clicking keyframe does not work after update!

I am on windows 10 latest version and update this and everything went bad. At the same time, my Extensis Suitcase Fusion font management needed to be wiped and reinstalled, and I needed to revert back to AE 17.1.2

I have ti all working now, but I won't update AE until the next version, as this one is not good for a working animator to use.

After effects will not open.   Tried opening from a previous project and as standalone but it won't even load the startup screenI've uninstalled and re-installed.  it does not give any error messages does not say application not responding.  no indication of what could be wrong.

I ran this update and it broke expressions. 

I had a CSV generated graph from expressions. which ran buttersmooth in previous version. After install i can barely render a frame in 5 seconds, and render time gets longer for each successive frame. (this is not a heavy graph, just to lines) 

I've tried downgrading versions, but now those don't work either. I tried resetting appdata folder, but didnt do work.

Hey ArneDig.

 

I talked to a couple of expressions gurus on the team and they would like to check what's going on exactly. Would you be able to share your project file along with the CSV?

 

Let me know.

Ok but the rotation tool in 17.1.3 is broken. It rotates things dozens or hundreds of rotations at a time rather than a few degrees:

 

See https://community.adobe.com/t5/after-effects/rotation-sensitivity-is-after-effect-is-annoying/m-p/11383822

 

For now I've rolled back to 17.1.2 where the rotation tool works fine for me.

    Is this based on GPU acceleration at all or hs the code been improved to improve overall RAM previews?

    Hi Mo,

     

    Most of the enhancements to the EXR plug-in are code optimizations. It's not based on GPU acceleration.

     

    Best,

    I'm also having troubles opening projects. Every single project I try to open won't load in the preview window & crashes AE. This was happening before I updated the program, but it has continued. I even reinstalled After Effects and it doesn't work!
