Paint brush lasts two frames even when "Single Frame" is selected.

Hello,

I am trying to create glowing animations and for some reason the paint brush lasts two frames instead of one when I have "Single Frame" selected. Could someone help?!

This should occur when the time of the layer has been modified. Have you changed the speed of your layer using Time remapping or time stretching?

yes is there a way to fix it could i just put it back to normal

Yes, some options:

1.- Select the layer and go to Layer > Time > Time Stretch ti set the stretch factor to 100%, paint and change the speed again after painting

2.- Select the layer and go to Layer > Precompose. Then, select the "Move all attributes into the new composition" option. This forces AE to render the time stretch before painting. Then, select the brush/clone/eraser tool, double click the pre-composition layer and start painting.
