How do I shorten a composition
When starting a new composition AE asks how long it should be, how do I shorten it when I am done with the project when stuff I have made is shorter so I don’t have to render it all?

under the composition tab select compostion settings, this opens the same screen you get when making a new one.

Thanks!
Its been a pain in the a** rendering all the extra space. -
You don’t have to render the entire comp length — set it to render the work area under “time span” in the render settings.
Do you have a copy of the manual, Andreas? Seriously, it would be good to familiarize yourself with the app through the manual.

I do have manual : )
AE is not my primary program but I am trying to develop my skills, I mostly use it for masking where I know the length of the clips. Now when I am trying to play arround with it I find that the manual is not the best that I have come across especially when English is not my native language. Besides I enjoy the exellent service and knowlege that everybody posess here : )

My favorite way is to hit ctrl-k (apple-k on the mac I think) to open up the comp settings, then adjust the length there.
Take care,
Nick
