Sweet. Thanks, man. Not something I would have figured out on my own, since there aren’t any visual cues when you hold down alt.

This was very helpful. I’ve been using After Effects for a while now and I thought there had to be some automated process for replacing a parent composition with multiple compositions. The problem I would run into would be if the comp layers are 3d and have a lot of parameters.

So thanks, good tip
