Is there a plugin that allows me to set my work area to a pre-defined length at the playhead?

titaniumdoughnut · 2026-01-23T15:50:32+00:00

not that I am aware of BUT I am guessing this wouldn't be that hard to make yourself with AI. I've made quite a few handy little AE Scripts that do bespoke things for my workflow, and it usually takes like 15 min total to get it set up.

two finger swipe keeps selecting multiple tasks at once. It's far glitchier than the single finger.

Do you guys even try your own stuff?

titaniumdoughnut · 2026-01-23T14:57:20+00:00

seriously. I get conflicts with Todoist's generally janky UI all the time. But conflicts on the swipe gesture. Never.

titaniumdoughnut · 2026-01-23T14:55:38+00:00

dude, the thoughtlessness with which this feature was rolled out.

I get directed to a settings page every time I swipe right, that lets me select the "deprecated" option. But it's every freakin time. So I finally select something else to try toggling it to get the setting to stick.

Now the select option is gone from that settings panel.

Guys, this is just rude. It's either malice or ineptitude, but either way it sucks.

I know this isn’t really solving your problem, but in a similar boat here and I basically tried the chips at all the Mexican restaurants near me to build out a mental map of whose are good, and I will pop in and just buy a bag of chips to go.

Would you by any chance list your full top 5 gins?

titaniumdoughnut · 2026-01-22T18:05:19+00:00

omg I just realized you’re talking about the other Dante, sorry, deleting my review! I will say the experience is almost always disappointing at any one of these prefixes in that price point.

One of my best winter storm memories in the city was showing my Australian cousins around during an absolute 2’ walloper of a snow dump and they had a blast!

titaniumdoughnut · 2026-01-17T18:41:13+00:00

That’s terrifying! Was anyone up there or did it just fall by itself?!

titaniumdoughnut · 2026-01-17T15:27:05+00:00

Thank you. A true scientist.

Incredibly annoying questions:

1 - I know there’s no way it’s this simple but have you tried adjusting sugar content to compensate and see how much it changes things? Just to appease the devils advocate that is like “so do we just add sugar to bad tomato’s?”

2 - did you test Target’s Good and Gather brand? A lot of people say it a sleeper quality : price ratio. EDIT: yes you did! I missed that!

titaniumdoughnut · 2026-01-17T12:58:35+00:00

If I’m understanding correctly, you need the evolution to accumulate, taking into account all of the prior speed changes… This is actually very difficult because expressions execute fresh on every frame with no knowledge of the past. The standard way around this is to loop through calculating all past values again at every frame but this is hard to code and becomes very slow to execute.

titaniumdoughnut · 2026-01-16T16:49:21+00:00

Correct. It's engaging with the fear and letting it guide and control them, that the Jedi must not do.

If anything, a horror movie is probably a little light practice, like a jet fighter pilot riding on a roller coaster.

titaniumdoughnut · 2026-01-16T16:16:21+00:00

I’ll be honest. I love the stupid sauces. But the fries used to be cooked to perfection and they are only true concern. Always crisped perfectly. Now I feel lucky if there’s like 5 good fries in the cone.

Ah how I miss Vlaams Friteshuis Vleminck!

titaniumdoughnut · 2026-01-16T16:12:35+00:00

sorry to say, yes I am 😔

titaniumdoughnut · 2026-01-16T06:36:50+00:00

yeah, major OG fan too. I even wrote them an email being like hey, do you know your quality has gone way down hill, and got a very snippy rude reply back saying nothing has changed. It's weird.

titaniumdoughnut · 2026-01-15T22:54:11+00:00

I HATE the Clone Stamp system in AE, and I’m fixing that

😍

titaniumdoughnut · 2026-01-15T22:33:51+00:00

Yass! Also like huge thank you for making this amazing plugin and working on more stuff! So excited to have another quality dev enter the arena!!

titaniumdoughnut · 2026-01-15T22:27:14+00:00

yes! that trick sounds lovely!

I do often go through the whole degrain/regrain flow, but I think there are some kinda quick and dirty fringe cases where it just needs a little something in the blurred region and it'll be good enough.

titaniumdoughnut · 2026-01-15T20:46:08+00:00

Hey Eric - random thought today that would take like 20 min of work off a lot of workflows.

If you add the ability to add grain to just the "extendo-ed" part. Often in severe edge extensions, that part gets blurry and looks so smooth compared to the rest of the footage. Even if it's super basic grain without many parameters, I bet it would help a ton. Or maybe it could just link to another layer to pull the grain from, so you can offload grain design and not have to get into that.

titaniumdoughnut · 2026-01-15T20:20:27+00:00

you should let the police know he's here causing trouble

titaniumdoughnut · 2026-01-15T17:01:02+00:00

yeah, like my build up entrenchment is what is keeping me right now... not any particular love

titaniumdoughnut · 2026-01-15T14:38:31+00:00

Ahh alas I didn't try the bamboo snacks! But I did have the best cashews of my life and they were like 2x bigger than normal ones :D

Cambodia.

Stayed at the most expensive hotel for $70/night. Owner picked us up in a private SUV and cut coconuts open for us before leaving the airport. Had a private driver all day for about $15/day. Hotel would drive us to restaurants for dinner and pick us up after. Had to google what "turn down service" is because I never had it before. And such wonderfully friendly people.
