  • When trying to import one of my psd files, AE keeps opening the same one even though the name is correct

    Posted by Olivier Prudhomme on December 3, 2015 at 9:12 am

    Let’s say I have FILE_1.psd which is a tree, FILE_2.psd which is a flower and FILE_3.psd a mouse.
    When I import FILE_1 I get the tree. Then I import FILE_2 and even though the name in the project window is FILE_2 it shows the tree instead of the flower. Same thing with FILE_3….

    BTW I am pretty sure my psd import is correct:
    File / Import / Composition / Import Kind: Compo Retain Layer Sizes

    Using AE CC 2015
    MacPro 2013 3.7

    Thx!

    No such option in my AE…
    I looked at the Preferences / Import and also the import window when I actually chose the files.
