cool. that works. Thank you!

I have a gradient on a shape which is in a bone group because it has to sit above the body and below the arms. I understand that bone strength can influence a gradient but I have released the layer and all points for the shape layer but the gradient is still being influenced by the bones but the sha...

I really appreciate everyone's help with this. Thank you all.
Sometimes it's hard to see what's right beneath your nose!

Perfect - I had tried that and thought there weren't any options, but of course in the "save as" window I have the choice of either animation + alpha and PNG + alpha both of which work very nicely. Thanks so much slowtiger!

Thanks Mejin, the suggestion regarding Quicktime drivers seems to involve the Windows platform - I'm on Mac and running AS10. .avi is not an option on Mac, there is no "Animation" setting for quality and no PNG+Alpha only Quicktime (PNG) which outputs with a white background. http://i61.ti...

Mejin - can you elaborate - where did you render with Animation-Codec? I don't see that option in AS. Pro res 4444 is the only option that will giv...

I see I can convert image sequence to movie in photoshop, but a lot of extra work - it does work to eliminate the white edge. Apparently it's a bit easier to do with QTpro - which I'll get if it's my only option. But ultimately it would be nice to just export directly from AS using pro res 4444 and ...

when i export as png it's fine, no white edge. But that gives me an image sequence which is harder to work with when what I need is a movie file. Or is there an easy way to convert an image sequence into a movie?

That option only seems available for image layers and mine are vector layers.

I exported an animation as pro res 4444 so it has an alpha channel. When compositing over darker footage there is a noticeable white edge. Is there any way to get rid of that? It doesn't matter if I choose "do not premultiply alpha channel" or not - same result. I'm compositing in FCPX, bu...
