Effects Presents don't include Eased/Bezier key frames

chasepadgett

Hey there!

When I load up an effect preset from Excalibur it doesn't include Eased keyframes. The key frames are still there but they are linear instead of the eased/bezier frames in the present. I thought it was something wrong with my preset but when I click and drag the preset from the effects panel all my key frames are eased/bezier. Any ideas on that?

chasepadgett this is Premiere Pro API bug.
It either will be fixed by Adobe team or I will find a workaround.

Hey there, loving Excalibur so far though this is a biggie as eased keyframing is at the heart of my process. Any updates or projected fix time? Thanks!

Sir_Ivan

Sir futurephonic sadly no updates at the moment. I'm quite busy with other parts of Excalibur and Watchtower. But I will push this up in my priorities (after all I wanted to try something for a while, just don't have time).

Any Updates on this issue? Would really help my workflow if this problem was solved somehow 🙂

Sir_Ivan

NoahW1431 there was a fix actually on Premiere API, which is great!
But... it doesn't work as it should, so it looks like that in one of the next updates I will make a workaround for that problem.

I have a smooth zoom transform effect that I have binded to a key, but when I press it it replaces the bezier keyframes with linear ones which throws off the smooth look of the zoom. Is there a way around this?

Sir_Ivan

dpeco this is Premiere Pro API bug.
At some point I plan to add workaround for it.

Sir_Ivan any updates

Sir_Ivan

flashi no updates yet. Currently I'm alone in my "developer castle", so it is hard to give enough time to every project.

rafaelsouzams

still no updates of this?

Sir_Ivan

no update. But now there is a hope that I will make it work 🪄

nadja

any updates?

Sir_Ivan

nadja not yet. More time is needed.

Sir_Ivan hey! not sure if you're aware, but the extension "drag & zoom" recently received an update integrating support for bezier keyframe interpolation, so i was wondering if there has been any developments on adobe's end with their API, or if the team behind drag & zoom somehow found a work around? either way, i found the news exciting and was curious if you had any updates concerning this feature in excalibur. thank you for your time (:

Sir_Ivan

nadja I see that it is possible to add bezier keyframes, however it is still limited (no possibility to change curves in bezier keyframes), but this is at least something.
I will try to add this to next Excalibur update.

isaac_herz

any news?

Sir_Ivan

I will soon push a little update that will add support for standard bezier keyframes. However, if animation curve was modified, it won't be translated by Excalibur.
