After Effects error: having to focus on ourselves??

[tardigrade01]

I am working on an extension for AE that uses Angular. I have a lot of things watching assets, and I suspect that might have something to do with this, but was curious if anyone else has ever encountered this error?

"After Effects error: having to focus on ourselves (76 :: 59 ). I can find nothing about it online or any relevant error codes.

it indeed seems to be tied to a custom filter I made in angular. I can't say why, but it could have to do with the fact that the filter is using the digest cycle continuously. Anyway, what an odd error; I thought it was sharing life advice.

I've just though of a great new AE plugin: one that generates error messages that give you wise advice for living.

Ha. Well, it has reared its ugly head again; I thought I had caused it by including some conditional matching loops in a custom angular filter, which could cause an infinite digest cycle, but even after changing the filter to a watch function and removing any loops, the "life advice" persists. Curiously, if I stringify a certain asset, the error goes away, and I can create new layers to my heart's content. The only other place I have seen any mention of this error is from a Creative Cow Post in 2011.

The mystery continues...

I have recieved this error twice today. It seems to prompt when switching to a different program, then coming back, when having a text field selected.
