Question

Mocha within After Effects

Hi, I'm attempting to use Mocha within After Effects, however even though Mocha launches, a message box appears (and remains) over AE saying "Mocha is starting...".
Tracking appears to work in Mocha, but AE is frozen while the message box is displayed so I'm unable to create tracking data. Closing the message box quits Mocha and frees up After Effects again.

Hi Andrew,

 

Thanks for writing in.

It is the expected behavior. The After Effects interface remains non-interactive at my end as well while Mocha Ae is open. To get the tracking data, you can generate it from the Effect Controls panel in After Effects.

Let us know if it helps.

Note: Moving this thread from Bugs to Discussions.

 

Thanks,

Nishu

Thanks for the reply, however the Effects Controls panel in AE can't be used until Mocha (and the "Mocha is starting" box) is closed. Then there's no tracking data available. 🤔 🤔🤷‍♂

 

See attached video for a demo of the problem.
