An error occurred while saving the comment Good news, this is possible! The feature you’re looking for is Responsive Design – Time. You can create protected regions where you don’t want your keyframing to change, and the rest of your precomp or Motion Graphics template becomes stretchable.

Go to File > Export > Maxon Cinema 4D Exporter... to send your project over. Animated 3D text and shapes are supported, along with cameras, lights and solids.

An error occurred while saving the comment Hi Jan,
Good news: if you right-click on a set of selected shapes, the latest version of After Effects will show a menu that will enable you to group or ungroup them automatically. You can also press CMD+G. (The shortcut works in older versions, too.)
Updating expressions to match is a good feature request.

An error occurred while saving the comment The new expressions are only available in the Javascript expression engine. My hunch is that your older projects have the legacy ExtendScript engine selected instead. You can switch to the newer engine in the Expressions tab in your project settings. If you find you have older expressions that aren't compatible with the new engine, you can run the Upgrade Legacy Expressions script under File > Scripts to make them work.

An error occurred while saving the comment sampleImage() can be slow, especially if you're running it multiple times and on larger areas of the comp, but it shouldn't be THAT slow. Can you share your expression?

An error occurred while saving the comment Go to Preferences > General, and enable the "Center Anchor Point in New Shape Layers" option. It's not the same as the keyboard shortcut, but it should make working with shapes a little easier.

An error occurred while saving the comment Hey there! I had a chat with the Animate team, and they had a couple suggestions to try:
1. Update to the latest version of Animate, which flattens advanced layer effects, then try importing.
2. If you're using the legacy route, i.e. publishing swf in Animate and importing it manually in AE, turn on the Optimize for After Effects check box in Publish Settings dialog before publishing.

An error occurred while saving the comment Can you give us a little more detail about how you'd like this to work? Some of what you're trying to do may already be possible -- take a look at the Create Nulls From Paths panel.

An error occurred while saving the comment Not quite what you're asking for, but you can double-click on the properties in the Essential Graphics panel or right click to reveal them in the project. It's a handy way to navigate your comps!

An error occurred while saving the comment We agree, those are great tools. Can you tell me more about what you'd like to see natively within AE?

An error occurred while saving the comment Have you tried creating a Motion Graphics template? That workflow packs everything up into a single easy-to-share file. (Well, almost everything: for licensing reasons, third-party plugins and non-Adobe Fonts typefaces cannot be collected.)

An error occurred while saving the comment Hi Tristan,
Need to clarify if this is a feature request to address a known limitation or a bug we're not aware of. Right now, we don't collect data files if you only link them via expressions... but AE should collect them if you add them to your comp as a layer. Which case are you seeing?

An error occurred while saving the comment We're looking into it, seems like it may be a bug with our Learn panel. Don't worry -- we definitely don't need your contacts for anything in AE. We will not email your comps to all your friends. :)
An error occurred while saving the comment Definitely doesn't look normal to us, either! Have you installed any other scripts recently?

An error occurred while saving the comment As long as you generate the different versions from the same original comp in AE, Premiere will keep your customizations when you alt/option-drag a new template onto the one in the timeline.

An error occurred while saving the comment Hi Joe! There's certainly room for improvement with the way properties are named when you add them to the EGP. Seems like we'd need to do something more explicit than using just the effect name to name a property, though. How much detail do you think is necessary to add? Would "Amplitude Slider" (effect + property name) be enough? What about including comp or layer names?

An error occurred while saving the comment Thanks for the update. We'll look into the crasher.
An error occurred while saving the comment Hi Mark,
Do you have the grid enabled when the issues begin? We've recently found and fixed a bug with proportional grid rendering, and our engineers think that's very likely what you're running into. The fix will be available in our next update. In the interim, the workaround is to turn off the grid.

An error occurred while saving the comment You can use Copy With Property Links to create duplicate effects linked to an original.
Take a look at the Create Nulls From Paths panel. It's under Window -> Create Nulls From Paths.jsx. It enables you to attach the vertices of your paths to nulls, which you can link together with parenting. Tip: hold down shift when you parent to have the child layer jump to the parent's position!
