    1. Lets say I have a imported graphic (or AE text) that I am doing a simple move on from left to right, starting all the way off screen and moving all the way off on the right side. When the graphic is outside the viewing portion of the Comp (in the grey area) is there any way to see it, instead of getting a an empty box.

    2. When I render out a video that has a camera move on it, it seems to get horzontial lines moving across it. When I render out the video with no camera it is fine. Any ideas on why this happens?

    Thanks in advance.

    As far as I know there’s no way to see your media (except for the outline box) unless it’s within the “visible area”

    1. Not really, you can adjust your work area, so that you can see the area where the graphic is, but it won’t show you the actual graphic. If you really need to see it, you could resize your composition, make your adjustments then size back.

    2. Without seeing the final video, it sounds like an interlacing issue. Need more information, such as to the type of animation, codec and final use(avid?).

    Thanks for the quick reply, the info on the camera move is below. You might be right on the interlace issue, but any help would be great. Let me now if you need any more info?
