  • Maximize Panel key doesn’t work..

    HI guys,

    I have a quite simple but frustating problem. The key for maximizing the frame/panel where your mouse is over doesn’t work. In the help file it sais its the tilde key, someone mentioned also the ^-Key and the accent key but non of them work. Nothing happens.
    I think its because of the german keyboard I’m using (Windows PC – I’m located in Germany and I’m using the English version fo AE 7 Pro because I don’t like the german titles).

    Does anyone of you know how to change the key settings to something different like F4 or something like in Premiere Pro 2?

    Thank you

    PS: My keyboard is not defect, because every key works on other applications.

    Do the following:

    a) Launch your AE in German at least once. To do so, use “Programme\Adobe\Adobe After Effects 7.0\Support Files\AfterFX.exe” -L DE as your shortcut or simply don’t use the customized English shortcut.

    b) This will create an “After Effects 7.0 Tastaturbefehle.txt” file in Dokumente und Einstellungen/Cletus/Anwendungsdaten/Adobe/After Effects/7.0

    c) Rename the file to “After Effects 7.0 Shortcuts.txt”

    You’ll now be able to work with AE properly and use German shortcuts (
