I am a template creator. My customers who are using Macs cannot open my After Effect projects that use jpg-sequences. I received the error from 3 customers and one colleague who has access to a mac did confirm it to me. JPG sequences cannot be opened on AE 18.2 on a Mac. On windows, it works fine.

The error message is
After Effects Error: the file format module could not parse the file (45 :: 36)

Please fix this bug asap.

After update to 18.1 the "V" key is not working to choose the selection tool.

For some stupid reason... we can no longer see the 1, 2, 4-View option in the Composition Window. This feature has been changed where you MUST have 3D Track enabled in order to view this option. Whomever made that decision to update the interface with this newer work flow is an Idiot! CHANGE IT BACK! There was NO reason for this!

me gustaría que revisaran bien los tutoriales de los programas, ya que se encuentran en ingles y hacen que los proceso de aprendizaje se hagan mas lento y engorroso.
Agradeceria enormemente que los traducieran al español

If you do not set a keyframe all of the dropdown menus reset to the default when duplicating a comp.

They should stay where you set them.

You provide new versions too often. It's not comfortable to re install all plugins each time.

After I installed v18.0 of After Effects, AE will not start. The launch screen gets stuck at "Initializing Required Components"

I've tried renaming Rename 18.0 as 18.0old in C:\Users<user>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\After Effects

I've tried clearing the Media Cache stored at: C:\Users<User>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Common

All with no luck. Crash file attached.

When importing multiple image sequences (by pointing to one frame, just like when importing only one sequence), Ae imports only the single frames, not the sequences.

Updated to 18.0.1 today. New Project. Draft 3D button is clickable, but nothing ever happens. If hovering the button, it says 'enable hardware accelerated panels in prefs/display', yet I got that already on. Could anybody help? What did I miss? Does the GPU or driver version matter?

Why is this site combining Feature requests AND bugreports together.
I can't even filter Requests from bugreports.

At least a filter would be nice to have!

Thank you

Want to place Anchor points to specific locations (up / down / left / right) or short cut key to locate them

I want to be able to easily switch the position of the anchor point of a shape or text layer to the center or edge etc.

After Effects is not correctly interpreting the alpha Chanel of ProRes 4444 files - if there is an alpha fade in the imported 4444 video, a black shadow can be seen under the fade - this is the same whether premultiplied is selected or not. I have loaded the same files into Motion and Millumin and they work correctly. See the attached still - the text should be fading from transparent to white but is showing as transparent black during the fade.

AE 2020 and 2021 can't open any sequences what include image files that show file size on disk: 0 bytes.
On server Data Deduplication changes that size on disk to 0.

it wasn't problem with AE2019
Please fix that

After Effect users are convicted to use Media Encoder to output .mxf/op1a and h264/h265. But Premiere can output all of these - why can't Ae?

The route from Ae to AME is far from smooth - so it will save a lot of time to have these output codecs handy from within After Effects.

Imports from Illustrator are showing colors that are way off. This appears both in the imported illustrator layer and when the Illustrator layer is converted to shape the color is wrong. I was not having this problem in 17.6 and when I downgraded and opened the exact same project the colors were magically fixed. This is a major issue that needs to be fixed immediately.

Usually I keep several versions of same app in one pc. But usually the icons of each versions are came with same design. It would be nice if the icons show the version number on it.
