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.

 for Some reason Whenever I pop up and White Pop ups they All Freeze and Not select.Even After Effects Tend to freeze Untill I hit my windows Button to Get out of the pop ups then I can Use the program....I can't Change anything in the white Pop ups

here's a video see how it plays in third even tho it shows full when its stopped?

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

Hi,i'm looking for help about an expression for the effect slider,when i'm using effect("Slider Control")("Slider").value.toFixed() it workbut as soon as i want to add a % at the end and use effect("Slider Control")("Slider").value.toFixed() + "%" the expression doesn't work at all anymore even just the start, does someone know how to resolve that ?Thank you(i'm putting screenshot for you to see, also english is not my first language so there may be errors)

I've been exploring the nice HDR footage from my new iPhone 13 Pro, on my iMac that unfortunately is one generation prior to having native HDR support (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2019 - HDR was added to the 2020 iMac models). Even without this HDR support, HDR footage (as viewed in Apple apps) has noticeably more contrast and richer color than non-HDR footage, so I'm trying to figure out if I can use it with AE and AME to at least get "pass through" color behavior - i.e. ensure that both the original imported AE footage and the rendered HDR result from AME look the same as what Apple apps (e.g. Apple TV) display for the same content. I've tried everything I can think of in both AE and AME that should affect color conversion, and I haven't been able to achieve this goal. So instead of dragging you through all those details yet, I'll start with a couple key observations, since I might be running into a known "you can't get there from here yet" issue. The first clue is that AE never di

Hi there, I converted an AI asset to a shape layer and can't figure out why the bounding box is so much larger than the layer itself. It's also not letting me select and edit individual assets within the layer. Any help/insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi, I just installed Aftereffects  and when I make my project it has low RAM warning while the necessary requirements are met to use the app with no problem. 

Hi! When i use the speed graph in the graph editor it shows a red and green graph instead of just a red or grey/white one, which makes it impossible to work around with. How can I get my speed graph to only have one line instead of both? (Yes, i've set my keyframes to easy ease!)Thanks a lot in advance!

Hello everyone.I have been using After Effects for many years and I have been having a problem for a while.For my video projects, I export objects from 3D programs as 360 degree sequential PNG. and I import them comfortably as sequential PNG in my AE projects.But for some reason for a while now, although all the operations are the same, I cannot import the sequential PNG files I created into AE.I get error as in the images I attached.Has anyone experienced this problem? Is this a general problem? Thank you.

Whenever i try to open after effects i get the following error tried reinstalling tryed safe mode reseting preferences nothing is working.

Hello, so i've been using After Effects for quite awhile, never have had any problems until now. Recently i've been creating videos again, rendering all of them the same exact way having no problems. Until the other day where i went to render one at H.264 and i got "Warning: Output file will be resized from 1920x1080 (1:00 PAR) to 320x1080 (6:00 PAR) to meet format constraints." now i have NO clue what this means or why it happened or how to fix it, non of my settings on AF were changed at all, it just did this out of no where.can anyone help me out and guide me how to fix this issue? thank you in advance

I can't use extension Why? any one can help me to solve it 

Hi everyone,(After Effects CC 2025)I'm trying to add an effects in a clip during work but it crashes on the same frame every time, it doesn't give me an error message it just crashes. I've tried removing all the effects from the clip and it still crashes, if I try to render the rest of the video and not the start it just crashes somewhere else further down but those two clips don't have similar effects or anything like that.I've tried clearing my disk cache,going into secret settings and turning on the ignore error setting,upping and lowering my RAM,restarting my computer,removing every single effect from the clipbut nothing works, if someone could please help me I would really appreciate it. This has happened on my other videos many times before and I've just given up and my hard work went to waste.Thanks,

Olá, estava a acabar um projeto de edição para a aula de edição no Premiere Pro Beta e o software foi abaixo e depois quando o tentei abrir, nunca mais consegui! Já o tentei desinstalar, reinstalar, instalar versões anteriores, limpei o cache no appdata-roaming-adobe-common-cache(s) e nada funcionou? Tive de instalar o Premiere Pro padrão porque o Beta não funciona mais! O meu computador é bastante potente, 32gb de ram ddr5, windows 11 etc... Náo encontrei nenhuma informação online de alguém que teve esse problema no Premiere Pro Beta, somente algumas respostas inconclusivas sobre After Effect!O erro é esse: Falha de inicialização: bad index offset array Simplesmente, não inicializa! Existe alguma possibilidade de isso ser arranjado? Obrigado!

My Magic Bullet Looks plugin used to work fine and now every time I add looks to my project the preview becomes black but it just happens with that effect (I don't pay for mbl btw, they are crack versions). I've uninstalled and re-installed it many times with different ones and it always happens the same. In maxon, it appears in my products but it doesn't work. If anybody could provide any help I'd be extremely grateful.  

So i have a plugin and it only works on after effects version 23.2.1 and i can't find it on adobe creative cloud app. I have no idea on how to get it?

Hi community. hope everyone is enjoying the holidays. I have followed a tutorial how to make a seamless loop using trapcode particular.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVAEo2bqxyc&t=199s But for my project I need only 48 frames, which converted into seconds is: 2 seconds.So in the particles settings Particle master Life, I make it so the particles last 2 seconds. which should correspond to 48 frames, But I still get s snapping loop. rather than a smooth seamless loop.  Thank you.   

Pessoal, como muda a timeline de segundos para frames?
