Troubleshooting with OBS

You might realize that some of your images, elements, text or other customizations are not showing up correctly after importing into OBS. This is a good indicator which step of the workflow might need to be revisited in order to make sure everything is set up properly.

• Check your Naming Convention

  • If your text is not updating, check that your #text1 - #text4 identifiers are properly set up.

  • If your image placeholders are not appearing in the script panel, it might be that your naming is incorrect. Use #placeholder1 or #placeholder2

  • If your colors are not updating, check that your shape layers contain the correct labels for #color1 - #color4 on your Stroke and Fill.

• Check your Text Setup

  • Make sure you have Glyphs enabled in your export

  • Include a hidden text layer that contains all of the possible characters of your font

• Check your Composition markers

  • Make sure you have set your preview time marker correctly.

  • Only use whole frame numbers. Be mindful if you change the FPS of your project after animating and setting your markers. The tool will not read frame numbers that are not whole frames.

• Ensure that your export settings are correct.

• If your Super is slow or laggy. You likely have too many images, image sequences, and/or your images are way too big.

Close OBS and reopen OBS to make sure that make sure everything is working as expected.

After all that is said and done, you're ready to package up your files!
