Thanks Dan.

Here’s the link:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/35786640/outPointExpressionBUG.aep

It’s a stripped down version, it only includes the offending comp and another one where I tested the expression.
Please take a look at layer 1 “hexagonos ventanas Comped” inside comp “hexagonos ventanas” and then take a look at layer 3 “CDFA-seal-7cm-2col-spacing.ai” inside comp “logos cert”.

Both layers have the same expression applied, but on the first instance it does not acknowledge the out point of the layer and instead goes all the way to the end of the comp whereas on the 2nd example it works as expected.

Thanks a lot for your help Dan.

Can I send you the project to take look? I just sent it to Adobe.

[David Cabestany]

This is really strange.
The expression is working, but is using the comp duration instead of the layer out point.
When I applied it to a different layer inside a different comp it behaved as expected. It’s only doing the odd behavior on this particular layer.

I even tried creating a new variable, but even with that, it goes all the way to the end of the comp.

oP=thisLayer.outPoint;
fadeDur = .5;
s=ease(time,oP,oP-fadeDur,100,0);
[s,s];

Didn’t work.
Same as before, the expression is not broken, I can see the values red and all that, but nothing happens.

Maybe a bug?

I’m not experiencing crashes or any of the other really bad bugs but just today I started seeing really long times for saving and auto saving an a very simple project. I thought it was related to a heavy C4D file I had in there, but I deleted it after extracting the 3D data and the long saving remained. Nothing fancy going on, a png seq, an open exr seq, 3 cameras, two lights and a null.

Speaking of 3D data, the .aec format is no longer recognized by AE and Maxon hasn’t released a new plug in, are there any planes of bringing back this functionality?

Can’t tell if your problems are because of this but it’s never a good idea to update old machines to newest operating systems. El Capitan was released 5 years after the machine you own, it demands more processing hardware than what your machine is capable.

I have a 2011 imac and kept it on Snow Leopard for as long as I could, then I upgraded to Yosemite when Adobe wouldn’t work on SL anymore.

Hello again,

Sorry for bringing an old thread back to life, but I’m again experiencing a large file size on an otherwise uncomplicated file, this time with “Save Polygons for Melange” turned off; still the file reached 2.11 gb and it’s getting very slow sluggish.

Any pointers will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Peter. I ended up doing that. Not that I am THAT lazy, but I had to do it about a hundred times, so any step I could have saved was welcome.

Thanks a lot for replying.

[David Cabestany]

It was at the top. The moment I placed it at the bottom the expression started working correctly.
Sorry I wasted your time Dan, but thanks a lot for your help.

I tried something like this, but it’s not working. Anyone?

n = marker.nearestKey(time).index;
if (marker.key(n).time >= time)
n-1
else
linear(time,0,1,n-1,n);
