Questions

Hi everyone, We're excited to announce a new Adobe Community experience is coming this January. A little bit about the update:The new experience will be simpler to navigate, make it easier to connect with other creatives and Adobe experts, and will give you clearer ways to share feature ideas, enhancement requests, and bug reports—with greater visibility into their status with our product teams. In the meantime: Adobe Community will remain active. Keep using it as usual—there will be no interruption in access. In fact, you’ll notice even more Adobe Experts on deck to provide faster responses before, during, and after the update. No existing content will be lost in the update. Every single post, reply, solution, feature request, and bug report you’ve made will be transferred to the new experience. You won't need to recreate anything. Existing content will reappear in two phases. When we launch the new community, all posts created on or before November 16 will be there from day one. Aft

desde ya varias versiones atras la importación por capas de archivos illustrator que no va bien , apacian las capas duplicadas una con el elemneto y otra vacía, ahora en la nueva version se corrigió pero la posicion de las capas no es la correcta, ojalá que puedan solucionar pronto ese problema ya que es muy importante a la hora de animar elementos que se precomponen en illustrator.

i changed the fps but the loading screen is still blinking , can someone help

I've added photos to all of the Modify Your Pictures Here placeholders by selecting Set Proxy.  I play the movie and they're all there.  I add the composition to the Render Queue and it makes a generic placeholder movie.  Am I using the "Set Proxy" wrong?  Please help!

Making an Iphone unlock animation for my school project and I used Adobe Illustrator to make each of the assets. Each of the assets are on separated layers so that it would be easier to animate in After EffectsWhen I imported the Illustrator files into After Effects, each of the layers don't have transparent background but instead have a white background. Thus the other assets cannot be seen because of the white background blocking them.When I was importing the Illustrator files I chose Import Kind: Composition and Footage Dimensions: Document Size. My Illustrator files are also PDF compatible. So I don't know what I'm doing wrong when importing the Illustrator file. I don't know how to describe this problem well, I hope that my photos can explain it more clearly for youIphone Camera lockscreen icon layerIphone Screen camera layerIphone body layerIphone lockscreen clock layerIphone notification layerIphone Torch lockscreen icon layer

How can I open them today and convert for Ae2025? I don't have any old Ae installed Here are some testfiles:https://www.swisstransfer.com/d/05e4bdb6-8d62-4287-be45-df5d4717bd61

i created an Audio Spectrum layer for Side A and it looks fine. then i duplicated that same layer, adjusted it for Side B, and noticed that the Side B spectrum is compositing on top of the first one. in the overlap area it darkens / ruins the Side A spectrum, as if the second layer is “covering” the first, even though Deep Glow is set to Screen.could you explain why this happens and what the correct workflow is so that two Audio Spectrum + Deep Glow layers don’t affect each other when they overlap?i already tried doing it via pre-comp and via Set Matte, but it didn’t fix the issue.

مرحباً جميعاً 🙏 أحتاج إلى بعض المساعدة. جهازي ضعيف بعض الشيء ولا يستطيع تشغيل أحدث إصدارات برنامج After Effects بسلاسة &#x1f605 هل يعرف أحدكم طريقة للحصول على النسخة الرسمية من After Effects 2019 ؟ أو إذا كان لدى أحدكم مصدر موثوق أو رابط رسمي، فسأكون ممتناً جداً لو شاركتموه معي.شكراً جزيلاً مقدماً ❤️

In the Smart Render phase, when usingERR(extra->cb->checkout_layer_pixels(in_data->effect_ref, CHECK_OUT_INPUT_ID, &input));checking out a layer that has the AEGP_LayerFlag_LAYER_IS_3D and AEGP_LayerFlag_COLLAPSE flags results in the checked-out layer’s extent_hint being set to the full composition size. Is there a way to obtain the precise extent_hint that only covers the non-zero alpha area? The performance overhead from unnecessary pixels is significant.

Idk Ez tool script isnt moving and i dont see a bar to move it around.

My After Effects can't create Motion Graphic Template. I've tried on new, empty project with a single title and it literally does nothing after I hit "Export" button. Can't find any info in log's or smth. Verry frustrating bug.

SO when i add this white cricle and track the eyes, it starts to twitch like this (in the video), i gave up, but if you have any suggestions, please help me with it...

Hi everyone!I'm working in After Effects using the Saber effect on a solid that has mask paths. My issue is that when I scale up the mask path, the Saber effect doesn’t automatically scale along with it. I can see the mask growing, but the effect stays at its original size.Is there a more streamlined way to have the Saber effect automatically follow the mask scaling, or do I need to manually adjust the Saber parameters every time? Any tips or workflows to handle this are much appreciated!Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,I’m having a really frustrating issue with text tracking in After Effects, and I can’t figure out why it behaves this way. I start by creating a text layer and, in the Paragraph panel on the right, I make sure the text alignment is set to center. I then position the text layer in the middle of the composition as usual.After that, I open the text layer properties, expand the Text options, go to Animate, and add Tracking. I animate the tracking value, for example from 0 to 5. This is where the problem appears. When the tracking increases, one letter in the middle of the text stays completely fixed, while the other letters move away from it. From what I understand, since the text is centered and the tracking is increasing, the entire line of text should expand evenly from the center, not keep a single letter locked in place.What makes this even more confusing is that this does not happen all the time. Sometimes the tracking behaves exactly as expected and the whole text e

Hi, I’ve uploaded a project to help. I’m trying to build a rig. Basically I have 24 pre-comped layers in a circular pattern parented to a null so I can rotate as a whole. They need to stay up right. I have that expression part done.As the layer enters the tigger box (range) I need that one layer in the box to scale up slightly to 75 and move in the positive x position slightly. Adjustable by slider in a controller null. I have the scale expression working. Id also like to trigger a prebuilt animation within the preComp.My issue currently is the position translation in the x axis. The expression works sort of until I rotate 180 degrees these layers move in the opposite direction and in the Y axis which I don’t want.I have not started on how I would go about triggering the prebuilt animation in the pre-comp.any tips would be much appreciated. Scale expression:trigger = thisComp.layer(“TRIGGER”);p1 = toComp(anchorPoint);p2 = trigger.toComp(trigger.anchorPoint);d = length(p1, p2);r =

This has been occuring for over a year now. So it's been through multiple updates. See the video for an example of the bug in action. Description:  I want to edit an existing text layer. I click the text inside the composition window once and highlight the text I would like to change. I begin typing and the new text is added to the beginning of the text statement and not replacing the highlighted text. If I then highlight the text again, the replacment occurs as expected.  This is a huge time waste and has led to copy errors when I have been too quick to edit during short deadlines.  Anyone experiencing the same thing?  Macbook Pro M1 Max.  Sequois 15.7.3.  After Effects 25.6.4. 64GB RAM.

Bonjour, j'ai un grand écran mais je n'arrive pas à augmenter la taille des textes de l'interface (et non de l'outil texte évidemment) sur after effect, c'est très inconfortable pour mes yeux. Savez vous comment faire ? Merci à vous 

Hi, Ich habe eine AI-Grafik von verflochtenen Linien, diese will ich so in AE animieren, dass dann mal die eine Linie oben ist, mal die andere, also wie bei einem Knoten. Ich kann zwar ebenenweise über dein Kontu-Effekt nachzeichen, aber halt nicht ineinander verflechten. Ich habe nichts dazu im Netz gefunden. Weiß wer Rat?Danke. 

Hi everyone,  I know I am not the first one to ask this question, but I want to sync all the folders of AE that have workspace UI, all preset locations, script panels, extensions, CEP... basically, I want to back up all the stuff that makes my After Effects easy to migrate to a new system in case of a new device/emergency. I just need to know the exact folders on Mac/Windows so that I can back up those folders daily and sleep peacefully without worrying about any kind of disruption.  If there is anyone who is doing it already, kindly help me with this. 

Hi, this is probably something simple that I'm missing but I can't figure it out.  When I am in my pre-comp, my gradient works the way I want it to and the colors appear bright on both sides. The "Continuously rasterize" button is clicked on there but that doesn't seem to cause an issue:  When I zoom out to the larger comp that holds that pre-comp, it's still not an issue. The colors show up as I'd like them to (again with the "continuously rasterize" option clicked on): But when I zoom out to the main comp that holds those pre-comps, the colors are muted and different: When I click off the "continuously rasterize" star button then they show up correctly but the lettering and shapes aren't nearly as sharp.   Wondering if anyone has suggestions. I'm using After Effects 25.6.4 (Build 3)With a Macbook Pro (Apple M4 Pro chip), Sequoia 15.6.1 operating system. Thanks in advance for any help!
