Hi, community peeps!
Welcome to the Community Recap for September. Everyone at Adobe is getting ready for MAX, and I hope you are too. During the past few months, some of our Community Experts have created brilliant scripts, templates, and extensions for After Effects. They have been kind enough to offer them to our community here for FREE. September has been no different. Therefore, I'm happy to announce that I've decided to add a new section to our newsletter called "After Effects Community Resources."

Top troubleshooting topics from September 2022
Issue: After Effects 22.6 low memory warning banner
Many users have reported seeing the low memory warning banner far too often in the latest After Effects version.
Why does it happen?
After Effects 22.5 attempted to cache five frames for preview when it crossed the memory assigned to it (under Preferences > Memory & Performance). In the latest update —After Effects 22.6— you should see a warning banner when After Effects runs low on memory.
For more details, go through this article: How After Effects handles low memory issues while previewing.
Status: This issue has been fixed in After Effects beta v23.0.0x59 and higher.
Issue: After Effects 22.x.x doesn't select the last character in a line of text
Many users reported that they are unable to select the last character in a line of text when they drag the selection with their mouse in After Effects 2022.
Status: This was identified as a bug and has been fixed in After Effects Beta version 23.0.0.25 and higher.
Workaround: Use the keyboard shortcuts (Command + A) or triple-click the mouse to select the entire line of text.
