MOGRTs not fully editable in 24.0.0 and 24.0.1

[Tommouse]

I have placed a support call about this and spoken to an adobe agent at length about this issue. I have been trying to do some university work which I wanted to use some simple MOGRTs in the essential graphics panel to add several pieces of text to a video i'm creating. I wanted to do this as quickly as possible while still having it look nice with animations etc. I liscenced a decent looking one and when I opened it in my seaquence, the essential graphics panel was not displaying remotely how I expected it to. I have googled around to see if anyone else has had this issue and it doesn't seem to be reported yet so i'm not sure what is going on. 

This is the screen I am getting now with no layers showing. There is also no way to edit the animations in the effects pane. So now these MOGRTs seem to be broken or only very limited in their ability to be edited - such as no control to edit animation lengths (other than potentially globally for the whole MOGRT) and no way to remove elements. 

I can edit the text input boxes and colours but it seems that all ability to edit the individual animations is gone. 

I have checked this with the stock MOGRTs that come with premiere pro. These all behave the same too. 

I've also installed 23 and this works as expected with some MOGRTs and not others. 

This is very frustrating when all I wanted was a quick fix and now I've been working for two solid days on this problem. I'm going to have to make my own very quick and limited template without decent animations so I can actually just get this job done.

Tommouse,

The answer is generally that the mogrt designer did not allow editing the animation. A simple morgrt with editable animation shows the keyframes in the Effect Control Panel in PR 23 and 24.

Hi @Tommouse,

Sorry for the frustration, it's hard to tell what type a mogrt is in the Essential Graphics panel by looking at it.

After Effects built mogrts do not show any keyframes in the Effect Controls panel. They're fully encapsulated motion graphics - only the controls that the artist builds into the Essential Graphics panel are available for the user to customize, but keyframes are not exposed. Check out a workflow video to see how to use After Effects built mogrts. To customize animation in an After Effects mogrt will mean opening the mogrt in AE, changing it, and re-exporting it.

Premiere Pro built mogrts will show you keyframes in the ECP and I think they fit your expectations for your project. Try out free Premiere Pro mogrts from Adobe Stock and see if any fit your needs.

Cheers,

Theresa
