Effects and presets > preset animations > text > animate in: all my presets are locked

In Bridge, I see a symbol of locking on the icons, but "unlock" does not help and there is no added animation when I ad the effect in After Effect. Can anyone help? I have the full version of the creative cloud.

Attatched: What it looks like at the bridge and a screenshot of my effect when I announced it. There is no sample text, and if I write something in the Composition window, it will not be passed (if it's a Word...) present yourself in an image.

Sorry - I'm New in After Effects - please help!

Your workflow is a bit wonky. Create a new text layer, Type in some text, move the CTI to the time where you want the animation to start, make sure that the text layer is selected, go to bridge and apply an animation using bridge by double-clicking. Drag the CTI to the bottom of the timeline to see if the animation was applied. If no animation has been added to a text layer, make sure that the text layer is selected and press U twice to see if changes have been made to the layer. Is was here no modification of the layer, and then make sure that EI and the bridge are up-to-date. If your versions are not and bridge and AE are not up-to-date, it is highly unlikely that you will be able to apply the animation to the bridge press.

If you can't Bridge works then just the effect controls panel and preset and then find the one you want by typing the first letters of the name of the preset in the field find and apply the preset by dragging the PCE to the layer. Once the preset is applied, make sure that the text layer is selected and press U twice to reveal all properties modified layer of text so you can adjust the timing of the animation.

  • Windows (composition and effects and presets) not refreshing

    Not much luck Googling for this response. I'm not a solid technology, but I am a heavy user of ae, so it's urgent for me. The windows/tabs are not refreshing. First example is in the editing/composition windows. If I scrub through the timeline with my mouse the updated publication. When I image by image (page up/page down) the composition does not update. Second example is when I search an effect in the tab "effects and presets. Search results remain empty no matter what I put in the textfield. I discovered a workaround is if I go into the control panel and switch between alphabetical (categories, folders finder,) display settings.

    I have reset the ae preferences and keep away the Adaptive resolution. I know that the cuda/video card is a problem, but it wasn't cause a problem in a version earlier than Adobe ae cc I had a month or two ago, before the update. Please let me know how I can solve this problem.

    Hmmmm... If that has happened since a year, it seems that something is really wrong with your AE.

    I suggest that contact you Adobe support.

    If you do not have to do a clean installation, make sure that you have a backup of all your stuff from Adobe, uninstall and run the CC cleaning tool before reinstalling.

  • Effects and presets

    Predefined animations predefined in After Effects using the effects and settings panel.

    I use After Effects CS6 and try to make a preset and get this message:

    After effects WARNING: Adobe Bridge is not installed. Please download and install it to use this feature.

    I'm new to After Effects, but this means I have to buy the bridge to use preset animations?

    Are there is not built in animation preset in the effects CS6 after?

    I checked in the animation preset to show, but I do not always find everything.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    If you have not installed bridge or it is obsolete, you can find predefined animations of the effect controls panel and presets. Just search here for snow and you will find:

    In addition, pre-defined animations you create will be also available here if you store in the default directory. Predefined custom animations will not have a preview mode in Bridge. My 20 full years to use AE, I probably went through about preset animations 5 times using Bridge. I know that some people prefer this method, but I find the Panel effects & presets a lot more useful.

  • Plug-ins appearing does not in the effects and Preset window

    Hello

    I have a few plugins that do not appear on the effects & Preset window or the Menu effects.

    I was doing some examples from an old book of AE training.  The examples used the classic PS decision-making in and THE classic PS Plugin.

    In the window of Effecrts control the card to appear as "CC PS classic (obsolete)" and "PS CC THE (obsolete) Classic.  These two are particle systems.

    When I type in CC PS classic or classic or just CC in the effects & Presets window search bar, none of these effects occurs, even if they are available and work in the project and in the effect control window.

    I find the plugins in my plug ins folder.  They are listed as PSCLassic.plugin and PSLECLassic.plugin.  The path is: Applications/Adobe After Effects CS4 / Plug - ins / effects / CycoreFX

    Why then I call them upward in the effects window and presets and why they don't appear in the menu effects?

    Another my thought has been that they changed the name in the tutorial, but don't think that this is the case.

    This leads to a second Question.  How can you find the ' real/real name' of a plug in if you gave a different name in the effects control window.

    Some effects installed with After Effects are outdated, which means that plug-ins are installed and can be used by the old projects that have been created with these plug-ins, but they cannot apply again in the effect menu or Panel effects & presets. It's normal. That's how we pull the old plug-ins without breaking old projects.

  • I bought lightroom presets and presets are not in my folder "downloads" as promised.  I bought FS presets * Adobe and paid the required $19.00.  This is the first time I bought presets so I don't know what I'm doing!

    I'm not familiar with the presets or the company that was bought in origin. But I suggest you to contact their customer service for assistance, download and install the presets.

    SMS is a function of the carrier, you will need to contact your cell phone provider and see what is the matter.

    IMessage uses very little data.

  • I put my C:\Users\AccountName files hidden and then changed their return, but now all my files are misplaced or foires

    It is a long story as to why I did it, I'll try to keep it as short as possible, but also detailed.

    I tried to get my graphics card drivers (it is an AMD Radeon) updated on my Acer laptop because I had errors of lighting in several video games, but my Catalyst Control Center has stopped working whenever I opened it. So I googled many answers, found none, contacted the technical support for it, they re-installed my graphics drivers from the card for me through the Acer eRecovery Manager (since I bought the computer with the graphics card built in), but the problem persist and so I searched for answers, and told to set the file C:\Users hidden and then visible again and it should allow the CCC work properly. But when I went into c:\Users--> properties, there is no option to set it to Hidden. So, I thought since my info is in my c:\Users\AccountName file, I click with the right button on this folder and went to properties, and the option was there. So, I put THIS folder hidden and freaked out a little when everything on my desk apparently disappeared from existence. But in my panic, I went to C:\Users-->Properties again and he now give me the option set to hidden. So I did, and once it was done, I unchecked the box hidden again and all my files reappear, thank God.

    However, this is my problem begins. All my files and folders that were inside the C:\Users\AccountName have been restored to be visible, but now, Google Chrome and Dropbox are unable to sync properly (and who knows what other sync accounts have stopped working?) and any where both move files or how many times I reinstall, they are still unable to sync. It seems that some of my files have been moved to places that they are not supposed to be? Dropbox has been moved somehow to C:\Users\AccountName\AppData\Roaming and to contact their support team, they said that it is not recommended because it is there. But even after the move to other places, he always did the same thing.

    To describe the problem that happens in both:

    -Google Chrome:

    It gives me the orange icon at the top and says I need to sign in again. She does everytime I open the browser. Once I log in, it says that my sync data is out of date or something like that. And no matter how many times I tried to solve this problem, everytime I open the browser he reconnects with the orange icon and I have to sign in again once.

    -Dropbox:

    By clicking on the icon, it gives me a permissions error and says that "store your home folder on a network share can also cause this problem. And of course it has been moved somehow to AppData\Roaming without put me there. Uninstall completely and put it back in place as AppData\Roaming automatically and still will not let me move it.

    So I'm not sure what is happening. I really need help with this because I use dropbox for many things, and google chrome allows me to stay connected to all the sites that I hear every day so now I will have to sign in everytime I visit which is extremely annoying. Above all, however, I am worried what other things have been affected by this problem. If you have any ideas on what is happening and how I could fix this, please let me know. Thank you.

  • Animating text in AE?

    Hi all!

    So for starters, I am on Windows 7 and I have AfterEffects CS5.

    After making my animations and video made in Photoshop (CS5, too), I turned to After Effects to do some simple (well I hope, it's simple) text animations.

    It's for a spooky project so I was hoping to make an animation where text moves slowly toward the camera, some letters blink.

    Another animation that I believe would be even easier it is simply the blinking text.

    I'm having a hard time trying to find a tutorial or an example of how to make these animations while trying to figure out After Effects (first time, the user cannot tell you?) I'm glad the movie is imported correctly, but text animators, it's causing me problems.

    I really hope that it's a simple solution and I suffer just to stay in place too late and think too much about.

    Thank you very much for any help!

    To animate text for anything other than the scale, rotation, and position, you must add text animations. Choose one of the preset text Animation in the effect controls panel and predefined settings and then select the text layer and press the U key twice to reveal all the magic.

    For flashing random letters on and off you would add an opacity animator and then throw little random in the range of the selector values. There is a predefined text animation evaporate called which will give you a starting point. You can find it by type eva in the effects and presets:

    This anime scale, opacity and blur and looks like this in the timeline:

    Learn more about animating text by typing text in the search help field in the upper right corner of the app:

    You will find all kinds of resources. Adobe - search: text. The help files and tutorials on Adobe TV will take you far away from understanding the process of animating text.

    When you have the text animating the way you want and then create it text 3D layer and add a camera to the model, and then animate the z order of the camera slowly move on your text or animate the z order of transformation of the text layer > position the property to move the text layer closer to the camera.

  • Captivate 8 - animated text stops at halfway through the game

    I've created a presentation with CAP8 and find the animated text does not play in its entirety, but stops at half way through.

    for example, animation type [email protected] and then on a new line in the same text box [email protected]

    Preview slide it works perfectly. It runs behind the scenes of five next overview and publication all [email protected] and then hangs after typing johnbe

    In fact, it stops the video, it seems, as I hit play to resume, then type the rr and will complement the enamel on a third time hitting play.

    I get the same thing on the next slide with two animations three text which are run at the same time and again on the next slide. I want to emphasize that this is not fair on a slide.

    I changed the settings in the properties of the 'rest of slide' term"animation", and there is no change. I lengthened the timing just in case it makes a difference, even if I use buttons shape to evolve to the next slide. No change.

    Any suggestions please?

    Thank you

  • XFL + Plugins and Presets

    If apply a preset or plugin (red giant or, video Copilot, etc.) to a layer of After Effects, will be the animation to be the same in Flash when I export as an XFL, or do I have to dial before the layer or something else?

    Please read the help for export to XFL format and use a bit of logic. Flash uses AE plug-ins? To my knowledge no, so the effects will be only exported, if you rasterize them, which means that you let the exporter make FLV clips. Predefined animations that use expressions, and affect the properties of transformation as position have to be converted to keyframes using the Expressions in keyframes keyframe assistant, if you want them to appear as of keyframes Flash native, but once again you have to strictly respect the rules required to export successfully, that is: everything must happen in the main computer. So to cut a long story short - unless you are really interested in the use of the properties of animation and your stuff is indeed heavy effects, you'll be much happier by simply exporting an FLV clip. XFL has never been designed to give you a way to fully build a Flash project in AE, people confuse just for that.

  • Rename the effects Rack Presets

    I have a project that requires a ton of effects Racks presets, and I would like to rename about 10 presets that I have already created. Is it possible to do it without looking for the huge xml file for the names of existing predefined settings?

    Can you not simply record the 10 with new names, and then delete the names of 'old' from the list of effects Rack presets?

  • I did this after intro animation effects and it was made entirely from photoshop files and my comp settings in AE is HDV 1920 x 1080 25, then I was asked to the release of the film in 1920 X 1080 MPEG H.264 NTSC 29.97 progressive, someone has an idea how?

    I did this after intro animation effects and it was made entirely from photoshop files and my comp in AE settings is HDV 1920 x 1080 square pixels 25,.

    Then they asked me out of the movie at 1920 X 1080 MPEG H.264 NTSC 29.97 progressive, someone has an idea how?

    1. to adjust for NTSC composition without affecting the report l / h.

    2 - this film must be rendered in RGB + ALPHA, and yet the mpeg does not support this definition, it seems that the record will be in the video codec animation or other.

    I am bit confused if I need to adjust the model, or leave it and set the video codec only.

    Thank you

    If you have (or get) MPEG Streamclip, which is free, you can open the anamorphic clip and resize it to 1080 true. You will be able to choose H.264 as a codec. It will be if necessary deinterlacing. Suppose that the MPEG card is a MP4 container.

    Good luck.
