Masks not updating on screen when edited
For quite a long time now, over a few versions of AE, sometimes when I edit a mask path keyframe it doesn’t update on screen (change).
If I change the resolution to half, it will then update but if I go back to full, even after rendering it, it goes back to how it was.
This is obviously a big part of my job as a VFX Artist so wondered if this is a known issue that can be easily fixed?
Thanks

Matt, that sounds pretty strange. Any chance you have some effects/transformations applied to the layers itself? Based on this, it might be possible to spot a pattern.

No, this is 100% a bug.
It happens to me as well. I’ll clear the cache and then suddenly the mask will jump into the proper space.
I thought Adobe fixed this an update ago…
NOPE
I’m on:
16.1.3

Still a bug, but I found a “solution” by hiding the mocha AE CC filter. For whatever reason the masks would suddenly be responsive. It shouldn’t make a difference because the filter wasn’t even really doing anything.
