  Cancel operation?

  Posted by Matthew Beall on December 2, 2009 at 4:33 pm

  How do you cancel an in-progress operation in AE?

  For instance, I move a layer but grabbed the wrong axis.. Can I cancel that so it resets to where I started? Or do I have to ‘undo’ that operation..?

  In autodesk products, the mouse’s right-click cancels the current operation. Very quick and handy..

  Just a regular ‘Undo’ after the command has completed, eh?

  Another feature request, I guess..

  Turning on caps-lock stops the composition window from updating; might be what you’re after.
