Undoing a PreRender….
I did a prerender……turning my composition into avi files.
Is there anyway to go back. In my case I didn’t move the slider bar (which determines how much of the comp you want to render) to the right place. Now the last half of this comp has disappeared. Of course I still have the footage files. But how exactly I altered them, edited, sliced, I can’t recall. The info appears to be all there. Is there a simple way to revert to the original before it was prerendered?The Footage was another comp which I had already made. “Reloading the footage” doesn’t allow me to go into the project window to get the comp….
thanks!!

That bar of which you spoke sets the length of the “Work Area”, by the way.
If you made changes to the comp, you can try Undo — AE has multiple Undo.
Or you could try “revert” to revert to the saved version of the comp on disc.
Or you could try opening one of the Auto-saved versions if you have it enabled, and if you have a recent version of AE. -
Well, the crazy thing is, I turned off autosave a day ago cuz it was irritating me. And somehow my pre-renders got saved into my latest Save version. Undoing is a nogo as well since the program as already opened and closed (actually crashed).

I think you have to go back to the last auto-save. There are no other options of which I am aware.

thanks…it’s actually not that bad. I only turned off autosave the day before cuz it was irritating me. MOstly i hadn’t ever played with pre-render. So it was something I didn’t know. I’ve already replaced the prerendered footage in the exact order. However, one strange thing is it now says “several files have gone missing”. Doesn’t seem like anything missing though…hmmm..
