Vanishing Point filter has no "Export to After Effects" options

Basically, I am trying to follow along this tutorial: After Effects Tutorial  Vanishing Point 3D - YouTube

But the option to export to after effects just isn't there. I have already tried resetting all tools and preferences, with no results. Pressing ctrl-e allows me to export to dxf, oddly enough, but this isn't what I want.

Hi Aes studio,

Make sure that you are clicking on the four corners of a perspective plane or object in the image to create an editing plane.

Note: Your grid should look blue, if it looks yellow then export to afters effects option will be grayed out.

The Perspective tool in the Vanishing Point filter is quite picky (particuliar) and difficult. If any drawn plane is red or does not show grid lines when selected, redraw it. If any layers are hidden or locked, you may need to unhide and unlock or remove them.
