Hi,
It has been awhile since I've used After Effects and I'm trying to figure out how to playback a composition.
Pressing the spacebar doesn't do anything, it moves the play head 1 frame back if I press it a few times in quick succession.
The work area is green and has been rendered.
Manually clicking the play button in the Preview panel changes it into a square icon (for stop I assume) but the timeline does not play, the play head sits on the same frame indefinitely.
If I restart after effects and press the spacebar while the composition is unrendered it will play back once not in real-time, but as soon as the entire composition has rendered and has the green line it won't playback anymore.
Am I missing something?
Zach

Same old, same old: Start by not using the Windows Classic theme in order to not mess with accelerated drawing functions.
