  • MISSING Layer Guides – I’m Stumped!

    Posted by Jordan Mederich on July 31, 2014 at 4:46 pm

    Hi Guys,

    As most of us, I’m on a deadline, and AE is giving issues.

    Single layers do NOT have the layer guides (dots around layers for scaling, rotating, etc), and has lost all 3D reference axis visuals. I’ve restarted the project several times, enabled and disabled the “GUIDES” checkmark in the comp. Working in AE 2014.

    Here’s an image to show where the layer guides should be, they just disappeared… which has been happening every day on this project after a couple hours of work:

    As you can see, the layer is activated in the timeline, but there are no layer guides.

    If you have any wisdom on the subject, PLEASE share. Thanks ahead of time!

    Jordan
