Incorrect outPoint Time value with Precomp Layer

When I precompose a text layer,
I found that although the outPoint time displayed in the precomp seems correct,
the actual outPoint  time obtained is incorrect,
resulting in issues with the outPoint expression,
requiring a readjustment of the outPoint to be correct.

@JohnColombo17100380 

Thank you for your reply.
I noticed that the article you provided is dated 2022.
So, has this bug been under investigation for two years now?

Hi @C27618681pmp5,

Thank you for reporting this issue. I think it might be a similar issue to https://community.adobe.com/t5/after-effects-bugs/bug-in-expression-layer-outpoint-with-precompositions/idi-p/13384121, perhaps with the same underlying cause. We have that issue under investigation and will add this case as well.

 

Cheers,

But I didn't enable the time-remapping , I just simply precomposed the text layer.
and The same issue occurs when just changing the time during via the comp settings.

This is a bug with time-remapping. It's apparently high-priority, but so far there isn't a fix. Using the Timewarp effect instead of native time-remapping works, though.
