The only way to change the fast preview/adaptive resolution setting is in the composition panel. I'll often work in a Layer panel instead (faster than soloing layers) and then have to switch back to the comp viewer to change Fast Previews to Off and then switch back.

Most of the toggles/settings are duplicated in both panels, would be nice if Fast Previews was, too.

Currently the toggle for Smart Quotes is only accessible in the overflow menu on the Character panel. A checkbox for Smart Quotes should be added to the panel itself -- like Ligatures and Hindi Digits.

The eyedropper is not working as expected.

I always set the background of my comps to the color of the interface using the eyedropper but in the new version it changes the color to black, not grey.

I have manually been setting the color to 232323, but it's too time consuming.

It's a minor thing, but I tend to use the context menu quite often. I wish I could have edit original in there in After Effects as well. I use a couple of other Adobe Apps and most of them have Edit Original in the context menu. In After Effects I always have to remember the Keyboard Shortcut cmd+E (which is different in other Apps). So when I toggle between multiple Apps it would be just nice to have Edit Original where I expect it.

Hitting * or alt/option-* on a frame with an existing marker should just open the edit marker settings dialog. Instead it wipes out all existing properties (comments, color, duration, etc.).

I use the marker text comments field heavily and would be great to be able to open and modify existing markers without having to take my hands off the keyboard.

It's basically a treeview..

By right clicking a layer and selecting treeview comp menu icon, I want to be able to see whats inside of that precomp without actually going inside,

The treeview of precomp layers could be visible and controllable without the need to actually open that precomp.

It's big news if it could be done.

Hi,

Photoshop has an excellent color picker that allows user to input Lab*-values and then converts those values to a corresponding RGB-values based on the color profile that's loaded into your working space. Similar functionality would be great addition to After Effects and extremely useful when dealing with brand colors.

When tracking a 360 shot using the VR Compe Editor and 3D Edit i no longer have the percentage/frame counter telling me progress of the track. The tracker then starts solving the track but never finishes just sticks on the yellow solving bar.

In our studio environment, we have a standard after effects template that gets loaded for every project. It would be nice to be able to pin a few project templates in the startup window along with recent files.

Add tension handles to rotobezier (x-splines) so they are easier to edit without a modifier key.

Basically, just steal how MochaAEs X-splines work, they are great.

Black hole, I interrupted the line!
Good support!
On the chat, they asked my phone number to upgrade many times, i don't understand why not once!

Currently, it is essentially impossible to change my keyboard shortcuts, because the window is too large to fit on my screen. This could be easily fixed if the window could be resized.

Right now the only way to view an asset without adding it to a composition is my watching it in the Footage window, which is a bit slow and clunky to work with.
It would be really useful to be able to scrub through assets like videos and sounds faster to recognize them.

One way of approaching this would be to match the Project Window/Media Browser with Premiere Pro's a bit more.

An other would be to improve the footage window by making it more responsive so it could be used as an video previewing tool.

a shortcut to flip through the drop-down menus in the Effects Control Panel. Something similar to the shortcut in the Layers Panel (Shift+ +, -) would be nice. Thank you!

When I trim down a layer, I should be able to have the "snapping" option, to ensure it is inline with the other layers. Similar to Premiere Pro, where you get that red line when something is perfectly aligned with something else

Please fix issue with views on new project. I cannot fix the application layout to fit my laptop screen on initial load. This is preventing me from having fun with an art project I was hoping to spend time on. Completely frustrating.

Allow the setting of label colour when you create a new comp (or precomp), rather than having it just adopt the label colour of the parent.
