  • Shortcuts not working in AE CC 2018

    Hi there,

    I’m on a new iMac (well, a 2017-er) and using the latest After Effects CC – but my keyboard shortcuts don’t work.
    Like F9 for Easy Ease, and Toggle Switches/Modes,.. Searched a couple forums and no luck. Has anyone else had this problem?

    Thanks!

    Whats your OS?

    You may need to hold the Fn button on your keyboard while pressing keys on the top row of your keyboard to get the function keys (F4, F9, etc.) instead of the macOS keys (brightness, volume, etc.).

    If you’d like to toggle that behavior, so the function keys work “normally” for applications and you have to hold Fn to get the special macOS keys, see this article:

    Thanks! That works for easy ease & switches/modes. But that would be difficult for ease in and ease out… :/
    I’ll check the article! Thanks again. 🙂
