  • Easy way to Copy Layers and Comps between 2 projects???

    Posted by Damon Hoydysh on July 10, 2006 at 4:59 pm

    When I copy the layers of one comp to another comp in a different project, the layers all show up with “Original Source Deleted in my new project”

    What’s the best way to copy a composition and or a bunch of layers between 2 projects without having to manually reconnect each file? Can you import a composition to another project and have all of the files linked to their sources?

    Thanks in advance.

    you can import a project into another project. Then everything will come accross as it should.

    or if you are moving it between machines and need the source material to copy aswell you can use the collect function under the file menu.
