The after effects texts have a error " having to focus on ourselves ( 76 :: 59) "

Every time I select a text layer in After Effects using the monitor, a message box pops up with the following error:

After Effects error: having to focus on ourselves
(76 :: 59)

When I click OK, the cursor jumps back to the beginning of the text instead of staying where I clicked to edit it.

It’s a small bug, but when it happens 200 times a day, it gets pretty annoying.

    Thanks for reaching out ​@Giovani RXNG,

     

    Are you using Animation Composer or any other third-party plug-ins? Try removing them for testing.

    Let me know how it goes.

     

    Thanks,
