  • Update sub-comp markers

    Posted by Aaron Kiersky on December 2, 2009 at 9:36 pm

    Hi all,

    so after placing a few sub-comps into a root comp, I realized that some comp markers on the sub-comps would help my keyframeing. So I went into each of the sub-comps and added some comp markers, but they are not appearing on the root comp. If I drag one of them to the root comp again, the marker shows up, but not on the already placed (and keyframed) sub-comps. I tried restarting, still nothing.

    Im in AE7, could just be a bug for that version or am I doing something wrong?

    thanks,
    ak

    thanks dave,

    hoping to find an easier way, but I guess that will do!

    If you add a marker to the sub comp in the master comp (layer menu) then right click on the marker you will get a dialogue box with the option to update the markers…. the trick is to have a marker in the first place…. not very elegant, but it works…. probaly to late for you aaron, but it may help others

    cheers
