I am trying to auto-trace a logo to make it appear as if it is being etched-out or traced by a laser. I have a vector of the logo, an illustrator file with layers, and a png, but I haven't been able to figure out how to outline it with any of them in after effects. Every time I auto-trace, it just turns my layer into a white box. Do I need to use the pen tool or something? Some hints would be much appreciated!

If you have any effects on the layer try to delete them and than auto trace.

Hi Bro, its very simple you just need to go to illustrator and increment the stroke weight to point 1of your art work and then use in After effect. It will definately work !!!!!!!

This Auto-trace tool is good but it is not perfect. It works best with flat and contrasting colors. Maybe your logo is very complex, try with these parameters that are default.
