    HI
    Is there any way to get AE to paste layers in the order that they are copied? Basically my problem is this, each time i select say . . 5 layers > copy > paste into the same timeline, they always paste in the opposite order with the top one being at the bottom etc etc, and I have to manually swap these around to get it right. Anybody know a quick fix that I am missing out here?

    Thanks
    JB

    The quick fix is to select the layers in the other order.
