I have tried every combo with my Dell Precision 3551 - usually on a USB keyboard I can easily shift frames with ALT+PG UP or maybe ALT+SHIFT+PG UP I forget. But on laptop keyboard, there is no way, I tried using the FN key, I tried with num lock on/off and with FN key, is there a workaround?  Same with the simple SHIFT+PG UP to move 10 frames... no luck.

Newbie question: When I animate text with a preset (ie. drop in characters) - how do I move the text to start off the page and have it 'drop in' onto the page?

Hi, Im trying to achieve a volumetric effect from a 2d image. Im not sure how to do so in after effects. I leave two images 1 that would  be the starting point and 2 what I would like to achieve. Can anyone give me a hand? what effects or combination of effects would help me achieve something similar at least? thank you.

Hello! I'm taking an AE course that's teaching us how to put text partially behind a wall in some footage. To do that, they had us 3D Track Camera the footage, add the text into the 3D scene, duplicate the footage layer (keep the duplicate 2D), add a solid (make it 3D) and mask it out to match the outline of the wall, and use that solid as a track matte for the duplicate footage which is above the original footage layer and text in the layer stack. (I'm not sure if it's relevant, but we also normalized the scene in a previous lesson and there are still reference nulls in the scene as well). I've done similar things before so all the instructions make sense to me and works perfectly for the instructor in the demonstration; but, for some reason when I do it, if I hover over certain areas of the solid, it'll automatically turn into the Add Vertex Tool so I can't mask out the wall. I've tried restarting AE , resetting preferences to default checking for updates, etc. It's re

Je ne comprends pas pourquoi mon fichier s'ouvre comme ça lorsque je créer une composition After Effects via Adobe Premier Pro

When I try the import "obj" files to AE 2024 (latest version) It doesn't not work and says "After Effects Error: Could Not Load" please help me. Thank you so much!

Hi folks,i am struggling with the following problem: Regardless of the version of Ae (i run both the final CC2015 Version, as well as the most recent CC2017 update) - after trying to preview a composition in my project, the composition window becomes empty and doesn't display anything (see images attached). After that, no matter what composition i open, it all remains blank, when scrubbing through the timeline and when previewing. When i try to quit Ae after that, it becomes unresponsive - i can't exit it other than killing the process in the task manager..I have tried the following: - purge cache/image memory- import project into a new project- open project in different versions of AEAfter seeing similar problems in other threads (with none of the "solutions" helping) let me assure the following: - it is not a magnification or zooming issue, when i start the preview i can see everything, the preview is just killed after that rightaway- the CTI is at a point in time where things should

The solution may be very simple, but I can't figure it out. I have a video using CC Star Dust and Gaussian Blur effects with transparent background (AE-Shutter-Encoder-settings.png), converted to QuickTime format, which I convert to WebM format using Shutter Encoder (AE-Shutter-Encoder-settings.png). I would like to use the resulting video as a transition in OBS, but as you can see in the attached picture (OBS-settings-final-res.png), if the background is too white, the Gaussian Blur effect will be grey instead of the red color I set, but the color will be well rendered against the black background. I have tried all kinds of settings and solutions, but the Gaussian Blur effect always turns grey on OBS.Thanks ahead for your help and sorry if I missed something to mention.

Hello community,I have unfortunately encountered an export problem. For years I have been rendering EXR with a straight alpha multiplying, but since a few days the function is grayed out. The error occurred sometime during version 23.4 and still in 23.5 no different. Was there an official change that passed me by? Is there a workaround? With some formats you can still adjust it, so for example with Quicktime ProRes4444, however this is of no use to me, since we have and need an Aces workflow. Unfortunately I can't find anything about it. The error occurs with multiple accounts in the office.Is it a bug? Am I too stupid? (probably anyway...)I appreciate any advice.Thank youAE v23.5.0 (Build 52) 2023WIN11 

Hello,I have a problem with my Adobe After Effect and Rush: When I create a new project and import a mp4 video inside it, I can hear their audio, but I can't see the video.On after effect, the video is completely green and on Rush, there's nothing...Do you have any idea ?Thanks

When I imported video to After Effects the video resolution  is low quality. Why 

Hello everyone.I want to wrap an image on an object I created in 3D.I will use a comp file for this and when I change the image in the comp, the image will automatically sit on this surface.But I cannot wrap the comp file on the curved area in the 3D object.I looked for videos on Youtube for this but I couldn't see an application close to this.How can I wrap the image to the black area in the 3D object in the screenshots I have shared in the attachment? Can you show me the way.Thank you very much.

It should be better to work in Composition window while layers are labeled just like in figma with their names, layer colors and contextual track and trick mattes. Also it could be useful to add hide and solo properties into context menus (kinda we already seen in Photoshop and Illustrator), tailored to selected layers. It's like a dynamic island but truly dynamic. Also you can borrow some ideas from FX Console plugin from Video Copilot.

Translating between languages and have my translations in a CSV. Linking works fine, as does my expressions to swap between them on my control layer.My problem is AE can't seem to recognize diacritic marks in specific words and then doesn't display any more of the words. For example: Más ventas displays as "M" (stops at the accent) mehr Verkäufe displays as "mehr Verk" (stops at the umlaut). Changing the font doesn't help. Any ideas?

I have a hex value that I'm working with (#60A630) on a project in After Effects. I have tried several RGB color spaces and export color management options... but every time, I get a color that does not reflect the source file. I believe I have read that H264 (which is the codec I have to use) uses the YUV color space. So, there is some translation going on... and I don't know how to account for it. Is there a way I can ensure that my hex value is translated properly—so that what I see in the source file, is what I can expect in the rendered video?

I am using after effect v24.3.In the graph editor,when manipulating a graph with keyframesI often use the "fit all graph to view" button that appears at the bottom of the window.I would like to assign this function to a keyboard shortcut key.However, it seems to be impossible to assign it to a keyboard shortcut key at this time.Is there any way to assign it?

After importing an mp4 file into After effects CC 2015 and creating a new composition I realized there is no video but only sound. I tried another mp4 video and that one worked perfectly (both visual and audio). Why is this file not showing the video? What can I do to get the video footage to show up?

I've been trying to figure out how to track/stabilize this clip but I've been finding it difficult as the clip first starts off focusing on the air vent of this Lamborghini Aventador but then moves down to the emblem on the rear wheel.Here is the link to the clip:Clip So my question is, how can I track/stabilize this clip, locking on to both points?Thank you in advance 🙂

I am trying to roto brush many small components in a 1 minute/30 second video - it takes forever - is there a way to limit the frames I'm working with or something? Does seperating and hiding a roto layer mean it's ignored? I read in other threads about 'Freezing' something - unsure what this means...I guess I could render the content that I've successfully Roto'd, and then delete that part of it, but I'm not sure that'll help
