Dear fellows.

After updating to the new version all went well.

But after moving some old plugins over to the new version my composition toolbar is gone.

Please see screenshot attached.
Already tried to reset settings and windows, but the right side is gone.

Any recommendations?

Hi there,

 

Thanks for writing in.

We're aware of this behavior and the After Effects team is working on making it better.

Thanks for your patience.

 

Best,

Please help same problem here. All the controls for comp views, resolution and selected view presets on the toolbar are gone! I went into a 4 view mode in 3D work, but now every new project all the controls are missing! Am I nuts? I deleted prefs same thing. Still gone. I know it's probably some stupid obvious thing.  First image is a blank project in 2021. And the 2nd is from 2020. Notice all the icons missing?

Hi dbeaty2,

 

Were you not able to get the Select View Layout by adding a 3d layer?

Let us know.

 

Thanks,

Nishu

Sorry, just found out - You need to activate a 3d layer in a layer.

But now the problem: When u dont have any layers active - you cant switch between views.
