Unprecomp

Hello, it has come to my attention that an upgrade is necessary. There is a considerable amount of commentary surrounding the conversion of precompositions to un-precompositions. I have observed multiple tutorials addressing this specific issue. Unfortunately, several solutions rely on third-party tools such as "Ae+scripts," which come at an additional cost. It would be highly beneficial if the software itself could be enhanced to include this functionality, eliminating the need for users to purchase supplementary plugins or scripts to address minor bugs.

    I LOVE un-precompose, but it has several limitations—mostly its inability to deal with EGP comps. I've also run into some strange bugs with it over the years—having it natively should solve those problems.

      I agree that having this feature natively would be nice, though Un-Precompose is pay-what-you-want, so it can be free if money is truly an issue. 

      In many cases, you can also just copy/paste elements between compositions to get the same effect. (There are plenty of exceptions here, but unless you start doing more complex rigging or expressions, a few transform adjustments are really the worst side-effects possible here.)
