Hello all. I have the following expression for my source code: effect("Einstellungen für Schieberegler")("Schieberegler").value.toFixed(1)+" %"; Unfortunately, the digits after the comma are separated by a dot. Since I work in Germany, I would like to have the place after the comma separated by a comma.  Unfortunately, this does not work as an addition:replace (".",","); Can anyone help me? Thank you very much!

Hi. I'm re-posting a question that I posted from last night to see if anyone has am insight: Hi. I am working on a project that uses roto brush a lot. Since I've been working on it, the roto brush has been taking progressively longer to propagate. Other than rolling the version of AE back to 18.1 (which seems to be the common suggestion to resolve the issue), is there another method to resolve it? I am using ProRes 422 files. I am running it on a laptop with Windows 11 and a decent amount of RAM (40GB) and I've upped the amount of RAM usage by AE. Is there anything else I should try?

I changed it from Premier to After Effect CompositionThe "The impact reported a general error" error window appears and cannot be converted to composition.When I import the corresponding clip in question as after-effects, the error window "After Effects; AEGP plugin première pro import; error reading effect info. some effects will be skipped" appears, but what is the problemThere's no codec problem, it plays well in the player, and it's a clip that doesn't have a problem when I'm working on Premier, but if I only take it to After Effects, I get a problem

Hello friends, I am trying to automate a task in our office. I want to move to every layer above in point. At each point it stops, there is a staggered text field that I want to overlay on the frame at that time. I came up with this script but cannot get it to save the Photoshop file. Could someone with experience take a look. Any help or suggestions welcome. Thanksif (app.project.activeItem != null && app.project.activeItem instanceof CompItem) { var comp = app.project.activeItem; var selectedLayers = comp.selectedLayers; if (selectedLayers.length === 1) { app.beginUndoGroup("Move Up Through InPoints"); var currentLayer = selectedLayers[0]; var fileIndex = 1; // Start file index while (currentLayer.index > 1) { // Get layer above var layerAbove = comp.layer(currentLayer.index - 1); // Move playhead to layerAbove's inPoint comp.time = layerAbove.inP

I am trying to devise a solution for outputting slides (still frames) from video. The frames that I want to output match a list of time codes. I already have a way to generate the list of time codes that need to be exported. Would After Effects be helpful with this? Is it possible to output frames based on timecode with a script or some other method? Thanks

How do I hide the preview thumbnail in the Project panel? It eats up a lot of valuable real estate. I see how to disable the thumbnails in Preferences, but not how to hide the preview area (which I don't need once I've  disabled the thumbnails):

I installed after effects from Creative Cloud and was eager to use it, but I kept getting the same message that said the app couldn't continue because of the CEP suite. I tried reinstalling more than once, and I still get the same issue. I also tried changing the permission on the app, and it didn't change a thing!! Can someone please tell me what to do? And if there's no solution, how can I cancel my yearly subscription without a fee?

I use the dropbox app to store and share files. Like Onedrive it creates a folder in which multiple people can access, add, modify and change files. You can see every file in the folder but they are just proxies that takes up no space. To use them you have to download them locally onto the computer, replacing the proxy file (on your end). The issue arrives when you open a project another person has created and you haven't downloaded all the files used in the project. After Effects gives the error "The source compression type is not supported. ( 86 :: 1 )" following up with another error window "file 'file_name.mp4' cannot be imported – this 'MooV' file is damaged or unsupported." One would think you just have to locate the files, download them and reopen the project. But After Effects will now hold a grudge against these files and give the same errors even though you have them downloaded locally. Trying to use 'replace file' or just reimporting them will give the same er

Hello everyone! I’m a beginner in Adobe After Effects and have been experimenting with the Keylight effect to remove a green-screen object from my video. After researching tutorials and gathering information, I successfully removed the green object using the following steps: 1. Used two videos:The first video contains the green-screen object (a person) along with my doll.The second video is just the background.(first video) (second video - background)2. Applied Selective Color to enhance the green object for better keying:(Before & After images attached)(Before) (After)3. Made the green color transparent using the Keylight effect.4. Adjusted the Screen Matte to achieve proper black-and-white balance. However, I encountered a few issues and would appreciate your help: 1. Unintentional Transparency: Parts of my doll (and even my hand) became transparent. Is there a way to restore the doll’s original color while keeping the green objec
