After Effects workspaces in the cloud

Explorer ,

It’d be amazing if After Effects could save my workspaces to my Adobe account. I’ve spent years perfecting my panel layout and custom script UIs and every time I change computers or reinstall AE, I have to rebuild everything from scratch.

 

Ideally, my workspace would live in my Creative Cloud profile, so when I log in on a new machine, everything’s back exactly how I left it. Panels, extensions, scripts, all in place.

 

Bonus idea: if AE detects that a panel or script UI used in my workspace isn’t installed yet, it could just notify me instead of leaving an empty space. That’d save a ton of time and confusion.

In short:

  • Save/sync workspaces in the cloud
  • Restore automatically when signing in
  • Alert me if a panel or script is missing

 

This would make switching machines or reinstalling After Effects so much smoother like how keyboard shortcuts or prefs used to sync.

Adobe applications (including After Effects) do save workspaces into your Creative Cloud account and when you log in on another machine, they magically appear 🙂

At least, it worked for me when I got a new laptop
