    M1 Mac mini / Pink squares appeared on monitor

    Has anyone experienced this issue? First time seeing it since I received my Mac mini last Tuesday. The pink squares showed up after booting the computer and would only appear when opening a folder or doing a right click on the desktop. I then changed the wallpaper and they instantly disappeared.

    After effects comp preview on high DPI screens

    Do we have any AE users who have high DPI/large screens? I'm running a 4k 32" monitor from a 15" Mbp and it seems it's running at 144ppi, which means my comp (1080p) display is tiny on screen, not essentially the half it should be.
