AE Script to copy layers from comp to comp
How would I go about copying all the layers from a comp to another comp without losing the null parenting.
Let’s say I have originalComp with 3 text layers parented to a null and I want to copy them to otherComp.Any tip would be appreciated!

If you want to copy all the layers, null included, i don’t think you should worry about the parenting. And to do that, use something like this.
You must declare comp1 and comp2 according to your project. I suggest searching the rd_GimmePropPath script to easily find out that.
comp1 = app.project.item(1);
comp2 = app.project.item(2);comp1.openInViewer();
for (i = 1; i <=comp1.numLayers; i++){
comp1.layer(i).selected = true;
}app.executeCommand(19); //Copy
comp2.openInViewer();
app.executeCommand(20); //Paste
