Not sure if this was implemented in the Mac OSX version – or if that’s part of the next release they are currently testing.
If it’s there, right click on the library, and choose “Manage” from the pop-up. Or hit Command+M (on windows it’s Ctrl+M).
I’m not on a mac, so I can’t test this, alas.

Once again, I’ll take your word for it. I’ll stick to moving things from point A to B.
At this point, I don;t believe pIllusion can do this, or at the very least, it’s not accesible to the end-user. Again, if you are looking into Game development, the only way features geared towards your industry will be added is if you let the folks at WT know you are using it for that – and that you need speciffic features to do it.

If you colapse transformations on that nested comp, it should make the layers in the precomp use their original transfer mode in your main comp. However, it does cause other problems so keep your eye out for trouble with those layers.

I usually duplicate the layer and on the lower of the 2 layers, I apply the tint effect to give it the color I want, and then blur it a little. FOr extra reach on the glow, between the 2 effects, I might add the effect called Matte Tools > Simple Choker and choke it with a negative value. Also I might change the layer transfer mode to Add so that it effects layers below as if it were lighting them.

#2 – It’s currently not supported, but it may be in later versions. If enough people need that feture, then it may be worth adding in. But it’s up to the team at wondertouch.
Fortunately they read the posts in this forum.
Take it easy.

September 21, 2005 at 8:27 pm in reply to: “Error: Opening Sound Component” MessageMaybe. did you recently install quicktime 7 or itunes?
I’m not sure what to tell you. You could try doing a repair from the AE disk (when you try to install it over itself it asks if you want to repair files)- but I’m not sure what that would do to any of your personal settings.
Is the file working in quicktime?
If not, you could try and uninstall Quicktime and reinstall. But if it’s working in QT, its probably an AE problem. You may want to call tech support.
Has anyone else encountered this problem?

you could also use the CC particle Systems 2 which has asparkels shape preset, and have th sparkels run over the text – but not all at once. There’s a point emitter that as it sounds emit’s from one point. But do it on a seperate layer (a solid above the text), and then combine it with lightsweep via a transfer mode like Add or Screen, you may get something quite nice.

Zoom only effects new particles, and these dots are all created during the first frame – check the number property and you’ll see that after frame 1 there are no new particles being generated.
So that explains Zoom. No idea why size isn’t working though. I thought it could effect older particles.
Alan, any thoughts?
Anyway, you can set the “size over life” property to change so that over the course of a partticles life it changes size.
Or you could set it to create more particles by deleting the keyframes for number that make it stop emitting, and use the zoom proerty on the new particles.

use the other emitter’s visibility property to fade it out as you fade the new one on.
