Hi, 

I have a strange problem and I don't know how it happended..

The layer controls got very big somehow!

I searched all over the settings to find where I can set this things but didn't find any solution.

Its especialy difficult to work with smaal shape layers this way b/c I cannot see the layer throuth the big  controls...

Did it happend to anybody out there?

Any idea how to fix it?

Thanks,

Ben

Hi Trlv,

 

That's not ideal.

Is it happening in all the projects? What's the exact version of After Effects you're using? Please try resetting the preferences. Here's how: https://community.adobe.com/t5/after-effects/faq-how-to-reset-trash-preferences-in-after-effects/td-p/10634342?page=1

Let us know if it helps.

 

Thanks,

Great! it worked!
It did happen in all projects, and I use CC 2019.
tried it also in CC 2020 and it was okay. But resetting the preferences worked!
Thanks a lot!
