Check the following:

1. Layer Visibility: Ensure the new photo is visible in the timeline and opacity is 100%.
2. Frame Size: Verify the photo fits within the comp frame.
3. Essential Graphics Link: Re-link the photo in Essential Graphics and save.
4. Clear Cache: Go to Edit > Purge > All Memory & Disk Cache.
5. Precomp Settings: Ensure precomp dimensions match the main comp.

Try these steps and see if it works!

It sounds like a tricky situation with multi-layered EXR sequences! One possible solution could be to create a script or expression to automatically adjust the resolution of each pre-comp when you replace with high-res versions. You could also use the “Set Channels” option in the interpretation settings to maintain proper scaling when switching between resolutions. This way, your layers stay consistent without needing manual adjustments for each one. Hope that helps streamline your workflow!

To automate tasks like this in After Effects, you can use Essential Graphics for easy text control and expressions to manage the scrolling effect. For large-scale automation, consider using scripts that can batch-create compositions or handle text import.

Check unit settings, slicer scaling, and print shrinkage. Test a small section first to confirm the curve.
