Hello,
So I figured out how to have 2 After Effects open at the same time. I really want to be able to copy layers from one AE to the other. I already know that I can save out layers and then import them into the other project but what I really want to determine is whether I can copy/paste from one AE to the other so that I can avoid having to save out and re import all the time.
So far, copying from AE_1 and pasting into AE_2 creates a 'placeholder' layer in my project panel and it displays as missing footage. If anyone has any insight into how to get the copy/paste working between 2 open instances of AE I would be very interested to hear how you did it. Thanks!
