  AE7 RAM Preview question

  Posted by Novosonitus on May 24, 2006 at 8:08 pm

  i posted adobe forum for same question, but there’s no success. i’m hoping you guys could give me some answers…
  i want to see my RAM preview on BLACK screen (not actual movie, but screen surrounding my movie).
  when i do RAM preview in AE 6.5 or earlier, it’ll play back RAM preview full screen on BLACK no matter what color the interface is while “Full Screen mode” is checked in time controls panel.
  when i do RAM preview in AE 7, RAM preview back ground affects by INTERFACE COLOR.
  I can’t make RAM preview play BLACK on black screen.

  if anyone know how to make it change, please let me know.
  (it maybe only MAC issue).
  thanks for your time.

  Yeah, well, the question is, why would you want your RAM preview to have black around instead of dark gray? I mean, it’s not the end of the world.

  true. but which other application has gray bg when play back full screen? quicktime, final cut pro, pfplay…
  i just didn’t get use to it. if there’s way to cutomize the bg color, that would b great.

  … and the AE help says the screen should be black. Bug or setting in the preferences text file? Hmm …
