How to reset the inpoint of multiple sequenced layers
Hi All,
I have 20 sequenced layers (offset by 2 frames each). I have flowers ‘blooming’ sequentially across the screen. I would like to reset the inpoint of my sequenced layers, so that they go from offset by 2 frames each, to all starting at zero again. Is there a trick or a script that will do this? Thanks!

if youre wanting all the layers to be set to frame 0, for example, you can select all and the whilst on frame 0 hit the left bracket…. [
is that what you mean?

Thanks for your response. I need to move the layers back to frame 0 because I want the keyframes within those Layer PreComps to all line up in order to tweak them. Once I change the keyframes within those Layer PreComps, I’ll sequence the layers again. I hope that makes sense.

Makes perfect sense, and what Andy describes is exactly what you want to do.
The left square bracket key — [ — will move all selected layers on the timeline so their in point snaps to the playhead (called the current time indicator in After Effects). The right square bracket key — ] — will do the same, but with the out point.
Move the current time indicator to the first frame of your comp, select all layers, and then hit the left square bracket key.
