    Hey All,

    So I know you can parent layers to each other in other comps on specific effects using expressions. However I’d like to know if there was a way to parent/child the whole layer like you would with the drop down menu.

    LMK!

    Am aware of this feature, you don’t think it’s possible to get the whole layer parented?
