No matter how I set my new composition settings all I create is a square comp. Any ideas?
TIA

You may have stumbled onto a hidden feature in AE. ;-)
Just kidding! Tell us how you're creating the comps - post screen shots of the Comp Settings dialog window and the comp after you've created it.

Exactly, hit ctrl+k and tell us the width, height and pixel aspect ratio. Otherwise you've found an Easter egg!!

Thanks for the responses. (CS6)I've used the HDTV 29 preset initially. Then changed to NTSC DV Widescreen, PAL Widescreen. I've tried 8 or 9 different combinations with different pixel ratios. The project window gives the right dimensions (1920x1080)but in the comp window it's square.
I'm almost thinking I will have to re-install. Which being cloud based now can be a pain.

I suggest that you delete your Prefs to see if it'll sort out your issue - it's much faster than re-installing. Also, don't forget to Sign Out (Help Menu) prior to uninstalling.

Deleting the pref's worked. Thank you for the help.

Did the composition extend from edge to edge of the comp viewer?

No it was just a square in the middle. Deleting the preferences worked. My prefs are pretty native so it wasn't a hassle.
