Steps to reproduce:    I'm following all of the steps to use Content-Aware Fill and it is not working. I am trying to remove Bob and only show the background. The only thing that happens is the tool creates a lighter Bob on top. I know the screenshot shows it is still rendering, but the results are the same as in the screenshot.  System info    Application: After Effects v24.1.0.78    OS: macOS v14.2.1, RAM: 16.00 GB GB, CPUs (logical): 10

Hola, Tengo varias composiciones que utilicé para crear fuego y después sobre ponerlo en un video que esta en 8K. Cuando previsualizo mi composición final, puedo ver todo correctamente. Hice un render en H264 y todo se veía bien pero después intenté hacer otro render en ProRes 422 y la animación del fuego se queda congelada en la parte final del video. Intenté renderizar con otros Codecs y sucede lo mismo incluso intenté nuevamente con un H264 y ahora también se quedó congelada la animación en la misma parte. He intentado renderizar directamente en After Effects y en Media Encoder pero en niguno renderiza correctamente. Igual ya intenté renderizar con el CPU en vez del GPU pero no he tenido éxito tampoco. A la hora de renderizar no me marca ningún tipo de error. Alguien ha tenido este problema? Sabrán a que se debe?  Información sobre el computador: Nombre del SO Microsoft Windows 10 Pro for WorkstationsTipo de sistema x64-based PCProcesador Intel(R) Xeon(R) CP

I've been trying to fix this for hours but I just can't seem to get it to work no matter what I do. I can scroll through the preview fine, but if I press play it is delayed for like 10 minutes or even more every time, even when all the cached frames are green (which should indicate that they're already prerendered) and I basically can't edit anything because I can't play it back. This is on 1080p footage with no effects. I have an i7 and an rtx 4060 with 32gb of ram so I feel like this shouldnt be a problem for me and I'm not really sure what to do. Right now I'm just trying rolling back after effects to the previous versoin (I am on 2024 but there was an update a few days ago and that's when my problems began). 

hello, I have a problem when using the after effects application or the premiere pro application, sometimes my mouse cursor disappears. This makes it difficult for me to use the application. how to handle it

Using the 3D camera tool. Once I've placed my layers (photos) on the timeline and ensured they're all checked for 3D, I then switch to a 2 view . My "active camera" view seems to be fine. However the second view (especially the "Top View") nothing shows but a black box screen and sometimes a red line. None of the layers or the camera show up. Even when I select the individual layers.

I've set up an Output Module with the "Output To:" using tokens to a relative path from the project folder: [projectFolder]\..\Output\[compName].[fileextension] Expected behavior would be to submit to the Render Queue and it goes to the specified path. Actual Behavior:Open AE, send comp to Render queue, File Path is "Not Yet Specified"If I submit the same comp again immediately "Not Yet Specified" If I select a filepath ANYWHERE, desktop, network drive, doesn't matter, just open the dialog and click save.Submit the comp again to the render queue. Output To filepath is correct relative to project folder. Closing the project and reopening, submit comp to Render Queue. File Path is correct.Close the Application and reopen. submit comp to Render Queue. File Path reverts to "Not Yet Specified" In Preferences -> Output "Use Default File Name and Folder" is checked AE version 24.1.0 (Build 78)Microsoft Windows 10 ProVersion 10.0.19045 Build 19045

I'm not sure if anyone else has found this, but ever since adobe 2024 has dropped the rotobrush tool has just become useless, it's ability to recognise consistencies within footage is completely shot, even masking stuff with blatant contrast from its backdrop has become a challenge. I then changed the tool back to rotobrush 2 in its settings and bang, back to the good old days of relatively intuitive masking, just wondering if I'm doing something wrong or if this is a universal issue 

Hey!I'm working on an After Effects script that involves two main functions, Step 2 and Step 2.5, which I'm trying to merge. Individually, they work as intended, but integration has hit a snag, especially concerning properties with separated dimensions.Step 2 (Universal Keyframe Detection & Expression Application): This part duplicates a layer and aims to apply a placeholder expression to any property with keyframes. However, it struggles specifically with properties that have separated dimensions (like "Position" into "X Position" and "Y Position"), not applying expressions as needed.Step 2.5 (Handling Separated Dimensions and Orientation): Focused on properties with separated dimensions, this script part effectively duplicates a layer, clears keyframes, and applies expressions for separated dimensions and the "Orientation" property on 3D layers.Challenge: The main issue arises when trying to integrate Step 2's broad keyframe handling with Step 2.5's specialized approach for separ

Hello,I have a brand new IMAC, have just clean installed After Effects. It Crashes before even opening.It mentions preferences - but this doesn't mean much to me, i'm afraid. somebody please help

Bonjour la communauté , Je souhaite ajouter un menu déroulant à un calque (peu importe, forme objet nul ou autre, le résultat est le même). Une fois ce menu créé, je veux renommer les entré et là AFTER plante... Ce qui m'inquiète c'est que voyant que ça ne fonctionnait pas dans mon projet, j'en ai créé un nouveau vide avec un calque tout neuf auquel je colle un menu déroulant et là crash ! le Même... Je downgrade ma version de logiciel : crash ! Je vide le cache, réinitialise les paramètres et les plugins : crash ! Je vais dans la bibliothèque adobe sur mon disque et supprime manuellement les fichiers de préférence : crash !Le message de crash est celui-ci : Je m'en remet à vous car la j'ai épuisé mes compétences.... Ma machine :

Project that had no issue and is reopened a week later shows font as missing (name in square brackets).It requires manually changing the font to the right one.There is only one font of that name installed in Windows / Font folder but After Effects shows it duplicated in Character panel. One working one in square brackets. The problem is AE switched from working one to the one in brackets.It happened before with few other fonts too.This is a serious issue because you can easily render out animation assuming everything is correct because it was checked and saved before, meanwhile the fonts are messed up.

If I am importing any file on After Effects, be it an Illustrator file or a PNG, it is not getting rendered through media encoder but if I am using a soild layer in After effects, Media Encoder is rendering it. Can anyone please help me in figuring out this issue?

I have a text layer with the source text being an expression for a data value from a csvfootage("Car facts.csv").dataValue([0,0]) The text displays on screen for about 30 seconds but during that 30 seconds it flicks at random times between the text and some placeholder text I used in the layer whilst I was designing the layout. If I change the value to another part of the source spreadsheet it flicks between the new (correct) value and the oroiginal placeholder text but at different time periods. Seems to be random.It does this in the preview, when I render from AE and when I render from AME.Any suggestions what might be cuasing it?

Hi there. How it is possible, that AE do not redraw preview after deleting or undo deleting layers.

Hi all, I'm on After Effects Beta and trying to use the new animated 3D model function but whilst the animations work inside the software itself, the final export has the 3D models statics and without animation. Any ideas as to why this is happening and how to resolve it?

I screen recorded my issue here: probably the clearest way to see the problem: https://vimeo.com/928095854/7cf75b44e7?share=copy  With words: I am simply dropping the stock Dissolve - vapor effect on some PNG's. I've done it many times in other projects with no issues. This time, the glow it creates is HUGE and I can't rid of a weird hard edge on that occurs on the edge of the PNG. I have already tried enlarging both the PNG and the comp quite a lot. There is room in the comp for the glow to keep extending past the edge of the PNG, not sure why it won't. Thanks in advance.

Hello All,Every time I draw a new shape with the rectangle tool, the Opacity is 10% (view image circled in red). I want new shapes to have 100% opacity, but I don't know how to make 100% the default. 100% opacity used to be the default. I don't know how it changed to 10%. If anyone can help, I would appreciate it greatly.Here are my specs.Mac OS: 10.11.6After Effects: 13.7.0.124Thanks,Ivan

Hey Community!I have a comp (FullHD) with a camera and various 3D layers (null objects + parented text layers). In the background is a map animation from Google Earth Studio as a 2D layer. If I now want to animate a path, it is displayed as long as the layer is a 2D layer. As soon as I switch to 3D, I can still see the path (vector line), but no more fill/stroke. Can someone give me the necessary push to find the error?

Hello friends! How can you make an animation like this in After Effects?

I've been trying to animate a little something but whenever I press space or 0 to preview it, it won't stop, it takes a really long time IF it does. I never had this issue before I updated to CC2020, it can't be a media cache or a RAM issue, cause I literally only have like 5 layers of text;; It just keeps looping over and over. 

How do I track this shot in mocha pro?https://www.reddit.com/r/AfterEffects/comments/1bp3wms/how_do_i_track_this_shot_in_mocha_pro/I understand that Mocha struggles with Shadows so how do I solve this sense a majority of the surface is covered in a shadow?

Why is my footage darker in After Effecst than in Premiere? After Effects' timeline is set to Rec 709 Gamma 2.4, Premiere timeline is set to Rec 709 After Effects:Premiere: What's going on? They have the same color space. The export also looks brighter when I play it in Pot Player. Why can't I get my exports to look right?
