New to AE. Whenever I move the playhead on the time line the "stage" gets smaller. It seems to show only the left upper corner of the composition. Once I stop moving the playhead, everything goes back to normal. Musta clicked on a setting somewhere, but dunno what it is. HELP!!!!

Hi wsflynn3,

Which version of After Effects are you using?

Can you post a screenshot of your workspace? That might help.

Thanks,

Rameez

When you say the composition gets smaller, you mean the actual display of the movie/video/project, or the area where your layers and effects are located?  Not so sure you are moving the play head or resizing the work area is kind of where I'm going here.  Otherwise, simply moving the play head would have no impact on the work space or the visual display of the project.

The fact that it all bounces back is odd too.  A screenshot for sure would be helpful.

And by "stage", you are talking about this display window?
