Hi, with older versions of After Effects I was able to preview the effects and presets in Bridge. While using the latest version off Cloud I'm not sure where I can preview it now. Any help how I can view the effects?
Thanks
You can still see previews in the current versions, at least for the bundled animation presets. Choose Browse Presets from the Effects & Presets panel menu, as shown below.
It’s definitely obscure. Although I knew it could be done, I could not remember the name of the command, I only remembered where the command was. I had to actually go through it to remember that the command is Browse Presets.

There were never previews for Effects. Animation presets had previews if they came with AE, but the ability to create your own previews for viewing in Bridge went away a long time ago. I think the last time you could create your own previews for custom animation presets was about AE 7 (about 2006), or maybe CS3. I don't use Bridge so I can't check to see if the standard animation presets still contain previews.

Thank you! Yes, that is what I was looking for.
