  • Hide the selected layer’s anchor point from the Composition Viewer

    Posted by Martin Dumas on January 17, 2023 at 10:41 pm

    Anytime I select a layer, its anchor point appears (including square handles for its bouding box) in the Composition viewer and it distracts me when applying property modifications.

    How to toggle/hide this anchor point ? And also maybe its handles ? I just *really* don’t need that layer to be “shown as selected” in the composition viewer when the panel being focused in the timeline.

    Currently the anchor point only disappears when I start previewing the animation or when I deselect the layer.
