FAQ

FAQs / Common questions

Before you buy

Is there a free trial?

Yes. Download Visuprema from the Downloads page and use the Pro function for free for 14 days with full access to all features. No payment or credit card required.

What happens to my presets once the trial period expires?

All your custom presets remain 100% safe. Visuprema will simply switch to the Free Lite Version. You can still use the 50 free built-in assets, but premium features like the advanced layout sizes or the top-10 tag menu will be locked until you upgrade to Pro.

General

What is Visuprema?

Visuprema is an advanced preset manager for Adobe After Effects that changes the way motion designers work with presets: Effects become visible before you apply them, custom presets can be created and saved with an individual animated preview in seconds, and the entire library stays organized at all times — for an easy and fast workflow without interruptions.

Are there any monthly subscriptions?

No. Visuprema is a one-time purchase. No subscription – pay once and own the plugin forever.

Is Visuprema a replacement for After Effects‘ native Animation Presets?

No. Visuprema works alongside After Effects‘ existing preset system. It provides a faster workflow for discovering, creating, organizing, and applying animations.

Can I install Visuprema on more than one computer?

Your license allows installation on 2 computers.

How do I receive updates?

Updates are delivered through the marketplace. You will be able to download the latest supported version whenever an update is released.

Do you offer a refund policy?

Because a free version is provided so you can thoroughly test the tool before buying, all sales are final.

Installation

How to install Visuprema?

1. Download the ZXP installer: Since Visuprema is a professional CEP extension, download a free ZXP installer like the aescripts + aeplugins ZXP Installer or Anastasiy’s Extension Manager.
2. Install the plugin: Open the ZXP installer and drag-and-drop the visuprema.zxp file into the window.
3. Enable Scripts in After Effects: Open Adobe After Effects. Go to Edit > Preferences > Scripting & Expressions and check the box for „Allow Scripts to Write Files and Access Network“.
4. Open the Extension: Go to the top menu, navigate to Window > Extensions, and select Visuprema. The panel will instantly open in your workspace.

Where to find a license key?

You can find your Visuprema Pro license key in two places right after your purchase:

1. Order Confirmation Email: Check the inbox of the email address you used during checkout. Your unique license key is included directly in the confirmation email.
2. Your Platform Account: Log into the account of the marketplace where you purchased the plugin (e.g., aescripts.com under My Downloads & Licenses). Simply copy the key and paste it into the activation field inside the Visuprema panel to unlock all Pro features.

Installation issues

Visuprema does not appear as an extension in After Effects

If the extension is missing from your Window > Extensions menu, try these three steps to fix it:

1. Restart Adobe After Effects:
After Effects must be completely closed during the ZXP installation. Restart it to refresh the UI panels.

2. Check the ZXP Installer Status:
Open your ZXP installer again and ensure that Visuprema is marked as „Enabled“ or „Installed“ for your specific After Effects version.

3. Verify preferences for older AE versions:
If you are running an older After Effects version, go to Preferences > General and ensure that „Load Extensions“ or „Enable CEP Panels“ is checked. For modern versions (CC 2024 and newer), make sure your Creative Cloud app allows third-party extensions.

Preset Features

How can I create and save custom presets with an animated preview?

Creating custom presets with Visuprema is fast and intuitive:

2. Click Create: Open the Visuprema extension panel and click the „+“ (Create Preset) button.
3. Name and Tag: Enter a name for your new preset, add your custom tags for fast organization, and choose a category.

Wie importieren ich my old presets or 3rd Party presets?

Yes – du kannst einzelne Presets oder einen Ordner von Presets importieren:

1 individuell, einzeln

2 Ordner importieren 

3 auf der Finder-Ebene verschieben (ohne Vorschaubilder, die müssen dann manuell selbst nachgeholt werden)

Hierfür werden allgemeine Vorschaubilder und Animationen für ein Standbild generiert, die bei Text-Presets und Pfad-Presets nicht spezifisch das darstellen.

Es wird immer ein

Du kannst das Vorschaubild ersetzen mit deinem eigenen: 1920x1080px, name: xxx.jpg -> austauschen im system unter – pfad:…
