Corbin,
This is where I start my search for new plug-ins. You can’t find a more comprehensive listing of all the plug-ins available.

I then search around for the best price.

In the animation menu, Save animation preset.

For the looping type stuff maybe add an expression to the positions. Alt click on the stopwatch for position and try loopOut(type=”pingpong”) or loopOut(type=”cycle”)

Also I should add that the paint is an effect that is added to the layer in your comp and will not effect the original picture. You can always drag the picture form your project window and have a the original unaffected picture as a new layer. What I can’t seen to figure out is if there’s a way to rotate the layer window so you’re not painting sideways.

I believe that whatever you “paint” on the original layer window will translate onto the comp window picture that you rotated and scaled down.

Did you try windows>tracker controls? If so it may be docked to the pane that has alot of other windows, ie. Audio,Info,Time Controls.
-
Just place your time line marker to the point that you want to export and go to >Composition>Save Frame As>Photoshop layers.
Then mask the image out in Photoshop and re-import into AE.

Go into the expressions scripting box and add *2 to multiply the effect by 2. experiment with other numbers, *5 for 5 times the opacity range or *.5 for half the range.

I can appreciate your apprehension stu aull. I also used a whole new set of DVD’s when I installed vers 5.1 from 5.0.3. When you get to the screen in the install process where you actually have to hit the “install” button it should actually say “upgrade”. also if you look at the version numbers on the disc you will find that some are the same version. (although you should use the new discs only when you upgrade to 5.1)
If youre still not sure, what I’ve done is hit command f to do a find and just delete everything that is associated with the FCP studio. (It’s probably not the best way but will work if your careful.)
I still think that if you use the new set and just go ahead and install all the files will be replaced in your application folder. Macs are good that way.

If I recall correctly, when I upgraded I didn’t delete anything, just ran the updater and everything took care of itself. Old studio was gone, new studio was in my applications folder.
