Using new Macbook Pro 2019 16in, brand new just downlaoded and can't seem to view anything I import? I've tried lots of differnt files, the preview screen is gltichy before I even imporant anyhting. When I zoom in and out the glitch moves around, at a certain point it shows the footage clear, oddly it works fine in 2 View tho.

Any help would be amazing! I've spent ages online and couldnt find anyone with the same issue.

I'm facing the same problem but with Premiere Pro - any zoom level other than "Fit" will produce nothing but glitches. Will there be a patch for PP too?

 

Many thanks,

David

Hi there,

 

Thanks for reaching out. After Effects engineering team is aware of the preview issues on MacBook Pro 16inch and they are working on a fix. In the meantime you can try turning on Rulers as suggested on this post or install the previous version of After Effects.

Let us know if you have any other questions.

 

Thanks,

NKush

I have same problem! 

 

It works fine but glitches a bit when rendering with After Effects 2019 - I think it's a Catalina problem together with something funky...

 

Would be amazing to hear what Adobe has to say about this, my workflow is currently on a bit of a stretch due to this...
