    hi guys

    im having problems loading my ps into afx as layers, for some reasons it doesn’t do the job

    file import> as composition= loads a flat ps file ;(

    it doesn’t give the afx box which ask you for import kind ‘as editable layer’

    however i don’t have this problem on my old afx file, it imports several layers from ps files fine. maybe there’s something wrong with my ps file but i can’t see anything wrong with it

    dum dum daaaam HELP PLEASE!

    It could be one of a few things. The most common is that the color model used in the PSD file isn’t RGB, but is something like CMYK. See this page for more information: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/415490

    Try dragging the file into after effects and not importing it. Because i always do this and it works for me but it could be the problem mentioned above.
