  • Illustrator paths not pasting into AE7

    I am trying to create masks in Illustrator CS2 to use in AE7. I have tried to paste it as a mask, and as a motion path but all I get is a square as a mask, it’s like the bounding box of the shape is being used, and nothing when pasting as position keys.
    The AICB switch IS on. I know I have done this before with previous versions of these programs…

    Set crop marks in AI?

    I’ve been having similar issues, absolutely driving me crazy. I just kept pounding on it till suddenly there it was, a path from AI successfully pasted into a mask that I could stroke.
    Sorry not to be able to tell you how it worked, honestly, seemed to be a completely random success.

    This is my standard sigfile so do not take it personally: “For crying out loud, read the freakin’ manual.”
