Adding a layer that has a different aspect ratio or export transparencies.

CS6 11.0.2.12 on Windows 8

Hello. I have a project which is currently in 720 x 534. I would like to add a layer behind it that has the same height, but is wider and I don't want to spoil all the layers that are made in 720 x 534.

If I try to change composition settings, it spans my original work.

I tried to create a new project with the broader framework of the composition and simply import the original video to layer on top. It works, except that I lose the slides of the original.

How can I add a layer to a project that has a different aspect ratio without affecting the other layers OR export a video with transparencies.

I hope that makes sense. Thank you.

Create a new publication with your new dimensions. Drag your old publication in the new publication to nest.

Since you are new to After Effects, I highly recommend you go first through the basic educational materials:

This will avoid a lot of frustration.

  • How to replace a layer that has a mask applied without affecting the mask?

    I have a layer with a photo.  I animated a mask to this layer, but now the client wants the picture replaced by another.  When I add a new photo in a new layer and copy the properties of the good work the mask layer mask lands in a different location than the original.  I tried to make a replacement of the images with the source photo try to make the new photo but the same results, the mask always gets repositioned.

    How can I replace an image on a layer that has a mask run on it by another without affecting the mask?

    Thank you

    If they are of different sizes, use the old layer as a track matte for the new.

  • How warns we point subfolder/content that has a different group to be created in the main folder security

    Hi all

    I'm quite new with OWCC and I use UCM. I've been created 1 main folder which a 'Marketing' security group. Now I want to test by creating another content element and subfolder that have 'HR' security group and place it inside this main folder (folder marketing security group). I was wondering why I can do. Why there is no show message box that this activity cannot proceed because of differences in security group. If I want to ban the folder to be created in another folder that has the group different security , where should I put it?  I really feel confused...

    I thought that the security group will control this kind of scenario. If this is not the case, what metadata actually control it?

    Very grateful for your help.

    The reasons are clear enough. Imagine that you have two categories of documents: one for marketing and other marketing management. The latter is a subset of the former, so often that the MKTG MGMT folder will be nested under the MKTG (taxonomy), but the same time be accessible only to those authorized to read (at least) the MKTG MGMT documents (security).

    Security groups are independent.  If you want a hierarchical structure, use accounts.

    Only accounts work the other way around - you might have MKTG and MKTG/PUBLIC accounts, but this time MKTG/PUBLIC is a subset of MKTG (i.e. a user with permissions for MKTG/PUBLIC will not access the docs MKTG).

  • Is no longer, I can choose any text, images or tables that I put in a landscape master page that has a different text than the rest of the document stream.

    I tried to follow these steps to set up a master page to landscape:

    http://blog.rockymountaintraining.com/Adobe-FrameMaker-adding-a-landscape-page-to-a-PORTRA TI-document.

    After experimenting with these options, I choose is no longer any text, images or tables that I had put in my new master page of the landscape. The content is somehow now on another layer that I can't.

    Any ideas on how to recover my content?

    Have you added [another] master block of text to the page? If so, you may have placed one above the other. Try to select the main text block and move it slightly to see if you have another below it [who is probably your content].

  • How to rename an index.htm file that has a different name?

    Hey everybody,

    It has been long since I was on a forum like this and it's been about 6 years I used RoboHTML regularly.

    We will generate our WebHelp (RoboHTML 7) helps. All of our projects usually index.htm (index_csh.htm and index_rhc.htm) as our main index files. However, the project I'm working on that has .htm < productname > and < productname > _csh.htm < productname > _rch.htm. The developers call the files index.htm, so I need to rename these three files in return. How can I do this?

    TOCA7

    Enter index .htm in the first field of the first window of the wizard to generate.

    Good luck

  • Is it possible to recover a layer that has been deleted?

    I'm trying to manage a layer last night and I was really tired, and anyway I ended up accidentally delete. Is there a way you can retrieve a layer which is eliminated?

    Unfortunately, the cancellation does not work on the command to restore a layer removed (at least not in 3.1.2

    I think that is why the secondary button appears when you press the trash can - reminder a little "are you sure".

    If you get to the layer 10 maximum, you could start a practice to duplicate the project before you delete layers.

    If you do not reach the maximum number of layer, just turn off the layers you don't want, then make the layer delete decision in Illustrator CC later.

  • E - M5 Mark II: why LR6 can't work with the full 4:3 raw image for photos taken with a different aspect ratio?

    When you import raw, Olympus E - M1 or E - M10 images taken in different proportions to the native 4:3 sensor MFT format, LR will display the chosen as culture overlay to the full image captured by the sensor. This is very useful because in post processing time one can still control the exact position of the frame and change if necessary:

    lr6-oly.jpg

    I was very surprised to see that for the new E - M5 Mark 2 is not supported.

    The LR6 raw file exactly matches the image that was chosen during the shooting. 4:3 picture information are full present in the raw of the ORF file, which can be easily seen for example using Olympus Viewer.

    Is there a particular reason why this useful feature has been overlooked for E - M5 Mark II?

    Thank you

    Karsten

    Karsten, the Adobe engineer has just announced that the file you provided is actually the brand I don't have Mark II... or at least that's what shows the model name field in the EXIF data (which is what using LR, and therefore why you can see the complete data of pre cropped out). So, two possibilities:

    1. you have downloaded an older file (little likely, given the date of capture).

    2. your device is a brand I have, not a Mark II.

    3. you had already hacked the file to make it look like a brand, I have so that you could treat it in Lightroom before the release of LR6.

    What do you think?

  • Stills wrong aspect ratio

    Hi guys

    Export still first pro 5.5.

    Open in photoshop to deinterlace.

    When they are imported into first is increased from 16:9 4:3

    I guess that's the pixel aspect ratio that photoshop has changed.

    How can I get the stills to be 16:9, when recording in photoshop?

    Thank you

    Hi Michael,

    You don't mention what was the video format, but if HDV 1440 x 1080, in Photoshop, you can simply change to 1920 x 1080 and will look correct, then using square pixels in the first. Or use Edit first, as suggested.

  • Adobe cloud has 2 different programs of Muse... How do I know that one is new better version?

    So I'm new to Muse, and my Adobe cloud has 2 different programs of Muse... How do I know what is the best new version?

    You must program (Muse CC 2014.2) has a black background when working on it... It looks like other programs such as Photoshop Adobe.

    The other is color of light (Muse CC) very similar to the black color Muse on the functions...

    One of the difference that I see it is that the color of the light Muse has a few widgets in the library, while the black Muse seems to have an empty library

    Then... Why are there 2 different programs of Muse in my cloud of Adobe?

    Hello

    The latest version of Muse is 2014.2, so you need to uninstall another version of Muse manually.

    about library items, you can add items to your library manually, as described in this article

  • I have Windows Vista - I'm a msge saying that the recovery disc (D) is almost full. How can I transer to OS (C) Disk that has plenty of room to the left?

    I have Windows Vista.  I'm a msge saying that the recovery disc (D) is almost full.

    How can I transfer to OS (C) Disk that has plenty of room?    Thank you.

    Hello

    I'm sorry, but you cannot move the D: Partition recovery or its contents; It will not work if you do.

    Your recovery Partition was photographed on your hard drive during the production of your computer by the manufacturer for all of these reasons.

    1. If you want to reinstall Windows from in the case of a failure of the system, based on individuals or the keys at startup.

    F10 or Alt + F10 or F11 are a couple of different manufacturers use sequences.

    You will need to ask your manufacturer for proper sequence.

    2. to make the recovery disks on if your drive hard breaks down, so that you can then reinstall the operating system on a new hard drive.

    Also ask them how to make records.

    Your D: Recovery Drive is should not be used for backups, defragmented, etc..

    There are backups on an external hard drive.

    To resolve the problems that have arisen with the recovery D: Partition, you will need to contact the manufacturer of your computer to remove all that has been added to it.

    See you soon.

  • Adding custom Transitions that include elements of color

    Hello, I'm currently adding a transition that I established in sequelae. The transition was recorded with an alpha channel, but has a certain element that is in color that I would leave it isolated. I tried different keys and mattes, but I have finally hit the wall and can't find other ideas.

    Can someone please offer suggestions?

    OK, it's easier in After Effects, but if you want to do first, here's a way to do it (Note: there are many ways to skin a cat and there may be a better way than that, but that's how I'd do).

    First of all, you must jump in After Effects and make two new versions of your "Swirl".

    Be the whirlpool as you have it now but the black area must also be transparent - you need the black box so that Matt will transport transparency it but also outside the blue and green zones:

    the checkerboard indicates the transparency.

    And you need to make a version where just the area that is black is became white and the rest of the image is black:

    We'll call him this mat cutter.

    On the timeline of the body, place the outbound scene on V1, the incoming scene on V2 and overlap the duration of your animation:

    I use color bars of the outbound scene with red color for the new.

    The V3, place the clip with the mat cutter. Then pass the effects Panel > Video Effects > Keying > overlay cache track and apply the track matte for the video on V2.

    When you open the controls for the Matt effect of track that you just applied, the value of the V3 matte. This should now cut the incoming scene.

    Then place the whirlpool with the clip color in synchronization with animation on V3 to V4. She "will cover" the area around the area of cut on the track below and you should now have your effect.

    You can see the result in the screenshot.
