I am trying to make a Christmas intro and keep getting this error when I try to combine the null animation with the particle animation.

I am currently following a tutorial at this link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLahjLuKI88 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLahjLuKI88

And cant seem to fix the problem. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Recently my after effects has been automatically creating new compositions every time I import footage into a project. This becomes very annoying as I'm always importing lots of footage and always manually deleting the new comps after effects is making for each piece of footage. I've looked through the preferences, but there doesn't seem to be an option that controls this. This wasn't happening when I first starting using this version so I think I must've changed some setting but dont know how to change it back. Any idea how I can stop after effects from automatically creating new comp when I import footage?

What version of AE? What is the exact process you're taking to import files? What format/codec is the footage you're importing?

After Effects CC 2018. Im simply right-clicking in the project tab and importing through there. Mainly importing mp4 and mp3 but this happens with all the types of format, jpeg as well.

Are you getting the new Comps when importing a layered Photoshop document as a Composition? If so, that's normal and should be left as is.

Is there any way how I can do that? Thanks in advance

Please help me! When i try to open the file I was just working on it gives me the error:

After Effects error: There was an error processing this PDF document. (1074397201) (50::29)

When I go to look at the saved file it is an after effects file and nowhere is it saved as a PDF.

Hi, maybe using Trim Paths animation to lines and trim paths for animate masks too! Just search for "trim paths" tutorials if you are don't familiar with it.

You change the local of your files? This can happen if the path in folders to access your files, was too big.

Try reset the preferences:

Press Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS) while the application is starting.
A dialog box launches asking you if you want to delete your preferences file. Click OK.

What's the expression you're using?

Dan

The lasso expression to combine to animations in sync.

Well, you can easily do it manual, image per image. Maybe you can try use the effect Motion Tile.

Let me try a different way. What is the actual text of the expression?

Dan

I had this issue when the update first came out (late October). Sadly after installing another round of updates it's still not fixed... o I really have to export as a .mov then use AME to convert to H264?

Resetting the preferences worked!

Thank you so much

The command wasn't working for me so I ended up renaming the after effects folder in appdata>roaming>adobe and opened up after effects to create a new folder.
