Well, that’s a positive start! I’ll try importing these files tomorrow. I did render the audio so hopefully I can find and sync that up

Damn, burn me once!

So this is an error you’ve seen before? Is there anyone running CC 2018 successfully?

I should be a full time Adobe employee with how much time I spend trouble shooting their awful software updates.

Thanks, all. These are all decent work arounds that will make things easier.

What would be perfect is a Beam effect where you can parent the start and end points to objects, control thickness, spacing and key frame the shape.

Qucik, someone code this and become rich…

I guess that would be the easiest way. You still have to twirl through dozens of properties to pick-whip.

I wish there was a better way to create dashes. Is there any third party plug-in or alternate method aside from animating shape layers?

Using the stoke effect and adjusting the spacing is a little less clunky, but that only creates a dotted line, not a dash.

Awesome! I haven’t seen these tutorials yet. This’ll help

[Malcolm Desoto]

Thanks! That’s what I thought!

[Malcolm Desoto]

Thanks, Walter! I’ve never used any of those apps but they sound like they’ll at least ease the burden.

I’m on a PC. I’ll check some of these out. Thanks!

Update: AE is not just importing all the clips from my timeline, it’s importing every clip from the folder.

Very odd. I’ve even tried duplicating the sequence and deleting all but one clip. Same result.
