How can we improve After Effects?

Bug when using layer search bar

Hi Adobe,

After Effects keeps deleting multiple layers when I use the layer search bar to search for 'color' and cmd/ctrl+z won't bring them back so I have to close and reopen the program. Any help would be much appreciated!

    Hi John,

    Thanks for your reply.

    At the time, I cleared the search field and the layers did not return. However, I haven't experienced another incidence of this since the above message, so perhaps all is well. If it happens again I'll be sure to let you know.

    Thanks,
    Sophie.

    Hi Sophie,

    Thank you for filing this report. It sounds like the search in the Timeline is hiding the layers whose names don't contain "color" and don't have any properties containing "color". If you clear the search field with backspace or the "X" icon on the right, are all the layers shown again?

    Thanks for any further information,
    - John, After Effects Engineering Team
