    Hi

    Is there a way that I can have time line be in the same place in two indepaendant comps.
    I know it works with nested comps but i have two comps (left eye and right eye) that i would like to be able to move the time line in one and for the time line in the the other to move with it …..

    so if i move the timeline to frame 100 in left , it moves to frame 100 in right

    Any ideas ??

    Nest the right eye comp into the left eye comp and turn off its visibility with the eyeball icon. AE will now consider the two comps related, so “Synchronize time of all related items” will work as expected.
