Timeline folders. We have them in Animate, Photoshop, Illustrator... precomps can utterly ruin your work and is NOT an alternatives to having a simple folder hierarchy - especially when dealing with shape layers or anything that requires continual rasterization.

I'm suggesting this idea for years. It would be really helpful! Adobe hear us please! When you have a lot of layers project become hard to organize (keep clear) and precomps and quite drastical change which creates new comp (make project panel less organize), break all scripts etc. please give us GROUPS!

There's no reason for not adding it. We've been asking for this feature for ages and yet you chose to not listen to your user base. Why? Just... why?

Yeah, I'm looking for this feature too. Hope Adobe take a look at this.

I would like to be able to group layers, similarly to in Photoshop or Illustrator.

Creating small groups of objects without the need for making them into a comp first would be very helpful.

Let us group objects, groups are not nessesary to be interactive, if that's impossible for some reason, but navigating in composition is a real pain when you have 30+ layers
