Thanks for the Reply, Rich.

Unfortunately, something wacky is happening.
As I said, my building that I’m placing the grid on is about 1000 pixels high at 240DPI. So I’d expect the resulting PNG files to be that too, but as mentioned, they are less than 200 pixels.

The way I noticed this was in AE, the images were all the right size, but looked bad. That tipped me off to look at the original PNG files and that’s when I notice how small they were.
So PS/VPE made them small, AE blew them up 500%, so the building was large, but with artificially large images (scale increased).

So what I ended up doing was increasing the DPI (and resulting resolution) to 1200, which resulted in PNG files of about 980 pixels (high, in this case).

I just can’t imagine what I’m doing wrong that the resulting PNG files are so small. It’s very odd.

Thanks again.

Disappointing.
But I thank you for the info, Alan.

Guess I’ll keep my money a bit longer and just use the two interfaces, since I can’t see a clear-cut reason to keep it all in AE.
Especially since the deadline is so fast approaching for the upgrade price and I won’t have much time to really evaluate it to see if there are any benefits to working strictly within AE.
Might be good to have a video up that defined that… Good selling tool.

I’ve been looking forward to having PI in AE for a long time now, but that was mainly because I thought it would react to the 3D world.
I’d guess that will happen some time in the not too distant future.
When it does, I’m there!

Thanks again.
