  • Cant COPY/PASTE mocha Data into after effects

    Hi all, I’m trying to copy my mocha tracking data into AE CS6 but it wont let me past the clipboard data. It just pastes the last thing I copied inside after effects. Anyone know if there is a setting in AE to clear clipboard or something?

    It seemed to be working fine yesterday…

    I haven’t heard of such issues except for CS5. Which OS are you using and does restarting AE help?

    Cheers

    This happens to me all the time.
    It has something to do with the clipboard data. When you copy something to the clip board in AE after Mocha is opened, for some reason copying to clipboard from Mocha does not replace the clipboard data.
    My work around is to go the the desktop and just copy the name of any file to the the clipboard, now when I go back to Mocha and export the track data to the clipboard, it pastes as it is supposed to in AE.
