After Effects: View Options – Layer Controls – Turning off mysteriously
Hello. AE layer controls constantly is toggling off automatically at random times. I can find this happening up to 3-4 times a day. Does anyone know why this would happen? I’ve been experiencing this for a few months now and can’t figure out the cause. This has been frustrating to say the least and would love to know why.
Thank you in advance.

There’s a hotkey for this toggle: Ctrl+Shift+H on a PC and Cmd+Shift+H on a Mac. The toggle is also a per-comp setting, not a global setting, so the appearance of layer controls may appear inconsistent if you’re bouncing back and forth between different comps.

By chance would you know of any current bugs that would toggle layer controls visibility without hitting the hotkey?
Thank you for your quick reply!

I haven’t been bitten by that, but if you can reproduce the issue, you should consider filing a bug report:
