  Need help with composition viewer controls

  Posted by Zvi Twersky on March 7, 2008 at 4:33 pm

  I have two problems:

  1. Sometimes, for no apparent reason, I lose all layer controls of a 3D layer in the composition window and can’t get them back, even when the layer is selected. This happens with solids AND cameras. So I don’t see all the little X,Y,Z handles or little keyframe\volocity movers in the Comp viewer window. My TEMP solution is to open 2 viewers and then I see them in one of the viewrs but there must be a way to get them back.

  2. MANY times, I just CAN’T change the volocity in the Comp viewer. When I try to grab one of those little circles that come out of the keyframe, the layer just gets UNselected! It’s SO frustrating! When you hover the mouse over them, the curser doesn’t change to anything like it does when you hover over the X,Y,Z arrows, so no matter how exact I am, the layer just gets unselected, like I clicked just anywhere in the Comp viewer, like you would when you WANT to unselect layers. HOW can I control the volocity circles in the Comp window – EVERY TIME? (For now, I use the graph view but I would like to feel in control)

  Thanks!
