Hi AE Community,I hope you're all doing well. I've been facing a peculiar issue with Adobe After Effects, and I'm reaching out to seek advice and solutions from the community.**Problem:**When I open After Effects normally, my dedicated GPU is not detected.

Hello My apologies I am a beginner with expressions. I can't figure out why I am getting an error for this line: if(comp("Final comp").layer("Control layer").effect("Glitches on/off")("ADBE Checkbox Control-0001")==1) 50 else 0; Any insight would be much appreciated.

I have a shape selected in the composition panel, but its shape Layer is not highlighted in the Layer panel; such that, when I disable the visibility of every layer/content in the Layers Panel, the shapes are still visible in the composition. 1. Shape Layer of selected shape not highlighted in Layers Panel2. When every layer is hidden, shape is still visible in the Composition Panel. I want to add Trim paths to the shape, but I can't locate it's layer. What do I do? 

So im working on a video where at the end, a cellphone footage is place. Premiere is automatically upscalling the footage where it detects blackspace?  I tried setting to frame, scale to frame, I tried putting it into a new sequence with the footage scaled up and blured in the back. But premiere still detects the black space within that footage if its within frame.    My guess that I could place Artificial Black images and maybe premiere will not scale the footage, but whats the correct way to stop premiere from scaling this footage? 

I have just got a new laptop from work - macbook pro running on Big Sur 11.6. I have installed after effects and I am trying to run ease-copy (a plug-in) on it. I keep recieiving 'Unable to execute script at line 1. null is not an object' as a warning and ease copy is empty. I've tried uninstallung after effects and reinstalling it as well as deleting the script and reintsalling that. The script works on several other computers too - any ideas on how to fix this?

Hi all Two compositions Comp1 and Displase have been created in the applicationComposition Comp1 contains three layers (Blue Solid 1, Magenta-Red Solid 1, Green Solid 1).The Comp1 composition is placed within the Displase composition and the Displacement Map effect is applied to it.The displacement layer is set to the Gradient layer of the Displase composition.As a result of applying the Displacement Map effect, the position of the layers (Blue Solid 1, Magenta-Red Solid 1, Green Solid 1) changes. Is there a way to get the new position of these layers without using the Motion Track utility?     

Hi! I'm trying to insert a special Ö character from my open type font into After Effects. I am aware that After Effects does not have any built in open type features but I'm trying to copy a character from InDesign/Illustrator/Photoshop to paste into After Effects but no luck.  Is this not possible?! 

Actions: Clip selected for Roto.Warp stabilizer added, stabilized.Rotoed Clip.During the roto freeze a warp analyize banner was triggered about new frames, which when was then included in the rotomask.I had to unfreeze mask, render the stabilized clip and start again. I don't roto much, or use warp all that often. I am guessing like most major VFX processes, stick to one major element/pass at a time. per comp/clip

Bonjour à tous,Depuis ce matin tous les fichiers que me sort After Effects 2024 sont à la date de demain ! Non mais sérieusement, c'est quoi encore ce bug ? Et cette "usine à gaz" n'a jamais autant ramé... Raz le bol de ce veau 😞Quelqu'un d'autre a noté ce même problème ?

I an a newbie to Adobe After Effects.  I work with students in an elementary school.  I am using CC5.  I layered some green screen video over another video, then masked out an area and used keylight to remove the green screen.  I precomposed this green screen layer and tried to add timewarp effect to it.  You can see in the picture below the keylight effect seems to be undone and can't be redone.  I tried to render it out to see if it would be corrected and it was not.  I have played with every setting I could find; I am at a loss.  Help

I am back on the adobe suite and editing in premier. I am using AE to make lower thirds etc. I am not planning to go too deep in AE, just be a rountrip user when needed. A while ago, I made interstitial using AE and a now defunct company called Zaxewerks. It was the AE plug in. I have tried to get the oldest plug in to work with CS4 and some older version of AE, but with no luck. Please see my upload. I would like to see if there a plug that I can buy that lets me make what is in my upload.  I can't seem to find it. Maybe I am not using the right keywords. Someone tried to send me directions to crate this in motion, but it is too in depth for my skills. Can anyone help?

HiI do logo animation based on Illustrator file. I converted all layers into shape layers. There is some text in original file, where each letter is separate layer, so now I have 4 shape layers of "HOME" word. I don't have original font. Is this posiible to group these for shape layers or convert them into text layer, so I could apply text animation? Or any other way I could do this? Thanks in advance Mike  

Hola.Cuando realizo los vídeos de after effects en media encoder salen perfectos. Necesito saber cómo selecciono la imágen poster del vídeo porque todos me salen en fondo negro. Agradezco la ayuda.un saludo 

 Pretty simple question I just need to move this text and the path that it's moving along down. How do I do that?I have one picture where the motion path is and then I made another picture of what I want to do with the motion path. Can anyone tell me how I can select the entire motion path and move the whole thing down at one time?

So, i'm using after effects to export animations to a game, and the tool exports the bezier curves completely wrong (i'm fully aware thats the plugin's fault not after effects), the only way to get it right is to get keyframes every frame of the timeline, i have been doing it manually this last years and it starts to get annoying.So this is what i haveThis is what i want Thank you for your time 🙂

It's random & unpredictable. It seems to happen regardless of how new a project is, what the clip is, etc.  It makes the program unusable. Any word on a fix, despite the fact it's been years and years and years?

This is driving me mad.I have two machines. M1 Air Laptop and M1 Max Studio.Both runing IDENTICAL systems, plugins, extensions & settings.Both have fonts managed with CC and Right Font,On the MAX, typing/amending Text  in the comp window, manipulating parameters or inteacting with has a HUGE input lag.Also Opening AE takesa 30 seconds. On AIR it is lightening fast (ie normal). Both systems using GPU, Prefs Reset.I have tried1. reininstalling AE on MAX. 2. disabling all scripts, plugins, etc.3. Running in safe mode.4. Deactiviating all non core fonts. In desperation, I tried runing the lastest BETA on my MAX, and the problem went away. my question to ADOBE (any others) is -1: is this a know issue that was fixed, and how long will I have to wait to see it released>2: Is there a known workaround that will strop the Text lag on the MAX? ...and no, I dont want to use the Beta in production. Thank you!

Hello,I bought an .eps file on shutterstock (probably made in Illustrator) and I was wondering if I can animate this in after effects as a kind of continuous wave in loop of about 10-20sec. When I convert the file to shape layers I come up with over 1000 groups, which means that every dot becomes a shape. Does anyone know how to handle this?Thanks in advanceJ

At first, my question was how to rotate the anchor point so that the z-axis faced the correct direction to hinge this folder face to be in the position below it. I read about creating a null layer and parenting to that. Honestly, that proved to be quite tedious (and unsuccessful), but also I wasn't able to set up the null positioning before parenting the layer without it then repositioning the child. (Both issues are shown below in the video.)  Then I thought that maybe I was going about this the wrong way, and that I should redraw the folders head on, rotate it from the head on perspective, then use a camera to show the 45° angle. Is this the correct way to appoach this? If so, I have two questions.  How do I maintain the stroke width for the 3d layer? (An expression, maybe?)How would I draw the sides of the folders for the camera rotation? If this isn't the best method, is it possible to achieve this animation, of the folder hinging open, while maintaining th

Short and sweet: is there a way I can get an object to follow a path whose anchor points are parented to nulls, and with round corners enabled? The only way I know of to get an object to follow a preset path is to copy the path itself and paste it into the object's position data, which won't work in this specific scenario.Is what I'm describing even possible?

Hello guys,I have the view on render and all yet nothing shows on the display monitor. I'm sure it is an easy fix but very confused how I get the effect to show?
