andreangelo Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Hello! I designed a little scene in AD, and put everything on its own layer(as you would in AI when importing to AE): Each element is separated out, for example: To my knowledge, the current way to get separated layers into AE, is to use .PDF, which seems to work perfectly(also note that with "Karma" selected in AE, it highlights exactly what I want): However, which I convert the layer into Shape Layers using "Create Shape Layers from Vector Layer," the "Karma" text completely goes away and it adds vectors from I don't know where along with a grey background: Karma is no where to be found in the Shape Layers groups and it added layers from somewhere else. It appears that "Facts & Trivia" and those 5 images get put on every layer that I break apart. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andreangelo Posted March 14, 2018 Author Share Posted March 14, 2018 Another interesting note - sometimes the layer is there, but I have to dig for it around those layers I mentioned earlier: https://i.imgur.com/0OEvUJC.gifv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstdefence Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Hi @andreangelo Do you have the file? I'll take a look and see what happens in my AE By the way which version of AE are you using I have created a rough sketch of your design and exported it to PDF, then imported as Quote iMac 27" 2019 Somona 14.3.1, iMac 27" Affinity Designer, Photo & Publisher V1 & V2, Adobe, Inkscape, Vectorstyler, Blender, C4D, Sketchup + more...

adidam Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 I am myself looking for this solution since I am right now designing in Affinity Designer but then I need to move it to the Adobe After Effects. Wish we could have some AI file support or something else so that we could have the layer-wise elements in the Adobe After Effects when we import there. (Yes, with vector support) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

verysame Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 There's no easy, fast solution. I asked about this back in 2016, nothing has changed (and nothing, most likely, won't): Quote Andrew - Win10 x64 AMD Threadripper 1950x, 64GB, 512GB M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD + 2TB, dual GTX 1080ti Dual Monitor Dell Ultra HD 4k P2715Q 27-Inch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
