When Copying a layer in the timeline to the clipboard, the project panel reacts with a random scroll. This feels like something uncontrolled went wrong.

 

Reproduce this: 

-Project with a lot of (opened) folders and footage

-Timeline with several layers

-scroll to somewhere half way the project items

-select a layer in the Timeline

-choose 'Copy'

-see how project panel view changes

Thanks for writing in, jaydude-wb.

 

Can you try running After Effects in Safe Mode with third-party plug-ins disabled and see if that brings any change? If it doesn't, please check if it's happening in this specific project or any project.

Let us know, we're here to help.


Thanks,
Nishu
