Windows 7 Ultimate

After Effect CS4

Gentlemen .

A very simple question, since i am more of a Premiere person, it seems like I am stuck with this problem and the problem is

In Premiere its called "Snap" its a tool or function that automatically finds the connecting or starting or ending of a clip.

For example if I have 3 channels of video and I have many cuts, by dragging the edge of a video , it tells or shows me when they are connected

I tried to search , all I find is "Snap to Guides" which in not doing what I want .

If you need more explanation, plz let me know , else hope you can help.

Thanks.

Btw. in Premiere the Snap looks like a "Magnet"

Just hold down the shift key when dragging.

To help you with that we need to know something about your composition settings and the settings you picked in the output module. Anything else would just be a guess. My guess is that you're using some HD footage from a non square pixel aspect ratio format and rendering to the same size. If you pick a square pixel HD format (1080 or 720 both have square pixel frame sizes in the default composition settings) and you put your HDV, DVCProHD, AVCHD, Mpeg non square footage in a square pixel comp it will fit and render out correctly.
