After effects layer properties Auto expands when I click Hide, Unhide, Lock, Unlock

The title pretty much says all of this, I tried to search if this has been discussed before but no could not find anything.

I'm on the latest version after effects CC, 13.8.1.38.

This ONLY happens when the composition I work has enough layers to display the vertical scroll bar (which means that the number of layers exceed the size of the size of screen/composition). If I click Hide/Show or lock/unlock on any layer, it automatically increases its content makes life very irritating because I have to close it manually each time. If I increase the size of the composition window Panel so that all layers are visible (i.e. no vertical scroll bar) so it no longer occurs. So the key to triggering it is to ensure there are more layers than your screen has space to show in this Panel.

I've looked everywhere in the settings and couldn't find something to turn it off. I know that the fastest solution is to keep the composition and store the number of layer, but it is not always possible for me that I must continue to work with items broken down in the same composition. My workflow would be more complicated if I continued to switch between the tabs before publication.

All solutions would be highly appreciated I just can't work with this 'feature' useless. Thanks in advance!

This is certainly NOT a feature is not that it is useless, it allows to work with layers of worse.

Let's see if we are talking about the same thing. Here is a composition with multiple layers:

I press the lock or hide and everything seems the same:

so if we are talking about the same thing, there is something wrong with your software.

try to reset the preferences Ctrl + Alt + press on the launch of the app you except that you please provide screenshots of before and after, and perhaps a video capture if you can and we will consider here.

  • After effects CC alert guard appear when linking to open the application, HELP!

    I just got one (never used) in the refurbished Mac Pro box and installed Maverick 10.9.2. Now, I get this "after effects warning" trying to open AE CC. I ran EI 12.2.1 updater to update. But when I do a "Get Info" he said still "12.2" and I always get the alert. I uninstalled and reinstalled AE, but it is still a no go. Someone knows how to fix this?

    Oh, also I have that "Red Giant link" installed. They call it "UNITEDPAYS." I wonder if this could be a problem!

    First, update your version of AE.

    Second:

  • After effects layer mask Question.

    Hello


    I am a novice and will try to explain this clearly

    I used this tutorial as a guide for Lightsaber effects. http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=gQ7dC0gWzG0 07:44 video, he explains how to make the effect of going behind the video using a mask... but not using his video, im using an another clip... anways...

    "Layer 3" has my video. I the effect of sword "layer 2", at a point in the timeline, I made a new solid layer with the pen tool master on "layer 1" for the effect of sabre on "layer 2" can get behind the main video image, I cut the points of entry and this (works but). "" "

    My question is, can I add another solid to the mask 'layer 1' later in the chronology for sabre effect on "layer 2" can get behind the next point, where it should get behind? ".

    The problem I had is that for this mask work "layer 1" would seem to be directly on top of the "layer 2". I tried to make a new mask solid, but as it was not directly above "layer 2", it would not work. So, I wonder how do another mask on the layer 1?

    Thank you

    Rather than add a new solid, add a second mask to your first solid.

  • Display the Properties dialog box when you click the icons on the desktop, but does not work

    I use windows vista. This morning after a normal start, any time I click on a desktop icon to open the properties of this program, but not the program itself. What happens to all the icons.

    Hi AmyWilliams,

    1. you remember to make changes to the computer before this problem?

    2 are you able to open the program when you right-click on it and select open?

    Step 1:

    You can check the following link and try to run the Fixit and check:

    Difficulty of broken desktop shortcuts and common system maintenance tasks

    Step 2:

    Given that this issue has started recently, you can also try a system restore and check.

    You can try to perform a restore of the system to a prior restore point you have been affected by the issue.

    Note: When you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

    To run the system restore, you can consult the following link:

  • Auto open when you click on VMware vSphere PowerCLI icon.

    Hello

    Quick question is there a configuration file or a way for me to have powershell cli automaticly "connect-viserver" when I open the icon "VMware vSphere PowerCLI.

    Thank you

    There are several ways to achieve this.

    The best way, in my humble opinion, is to add the Connect-VIServer cmdlet to a PowerShell profile files.

    Just add a line to the file. If you use an authorized account, you can do

    SE connect-VIServer-Server MyServer

    I suggest you use the profile of the current user, in this way that the Connect-VIServer will run only when you start PowerCLI

  • Premiere Pro creates new after effects project sending clips to AE?

    When you create a new composition in After Effects to clips on the timeline, Premiere Pro works perfectly well. Send clips to a new composition, the same project After Effects. All is well and good. Until I got close After Effects or Premiere. Then, when that I raise, clips in After Effects in a new composition, Premiere Pro sent something strange. Even if I reopen the project I was working on, no matter what, Premiere Pro sent clips to a new project and not send them to the one currently open. Does anyone have any kind of reasons as to why?

    Hi Instrud:

    Just to clarify: when you continue to work, After Effects is open with the file to current project open AE and Premiere Pro is open with the file to current project plans open as well.  Then, when you choose "Replace with After Effects Composition" your Pro first sequence, the current project of AE closes and starts a new AE project.

    All of which is managed by dynamic link and clearly something is off.

    I got to one of two things:

    • Begin a conversation with Adobe support to check that everything is installed and configured correctly on your system.
    • Uninstall the two Premiere Pro and Adobe After Effects and then reinstall them (something Adobe support would you anyway).

  • Searching after effects help

    I had intended to ask this question for a while:

    I'm a fool, or is there no way to search only the After Effects help documentation?

    When I'm using AFter Effects (F1) there are two search field, and whichever one I use

    It seems search all adobe rather than just the After Effects documentation.

    I get results documentation, forum questions and other products Adobe ect...

    I just don't know how to use help or is this normal?

    [Updated title to aid clarity. - Mod.]

    When you press F1 and land on the effects of Adobe help page, you can enter your search terms, do the research and then on the results page select 'Support' to filter only support documentation Adobe and tutorials. You can also filter on product (s). Does that help?
