Trapcode Particular's Emitter marker gets included in my export from After Effects

Hi,

I created a solid and dropped Trapcode Paticular on it. As usual there is a green/reed marker that shows me where the center of the emitter is. For some reason this marker gets rendered into my video. I even asked trapcode and they said it's an Adobe thing as the marker comes from After Effects. How can I get rid of this in my export?! As the camera flies towards this the marker gets bigger until it passes it. (Image is attached)

 

Setup is After Effects 17.1.3, Particular 4.1.5, Geforce RTX2080 Ti (with latest geforce driver), Ryzen Threadripper 3960X, 128gb ram

Hi Richard, thanks for getting back to me. Here is a better screenshot.


Yep, I see in your screenshot that visualize fields is on. You need to turn that off.

If I'm seeing your screenshot correctly, that's not an AE thing and that's not a marker for the emitter. That's the turbulence field visualization. Under the physics>air section, there's a tickbox to visualize the fields (it shows the turbelence, spherical field, etc.). You need to turn it off.

    Without any info about your setup, render settings and so on nobody can tell you much. Widgets/ gizmos for all intents and purposes should only appear in preview modes, not in final renders. To be honest, though, your light streaks look kind of alaiased, which could indicate issues with OpenGL-based rendering in the plug-in itself as well as problems with AE's own hardware acceleration stuff. So start by checking your graphics drivers.

      Thanks Mylenium for your reply. I added some more details to my question. Thing is that I have to get this to work as its a flat design thing for a client. I'll search through the settings now.
