Hi all,
when duplicating a bunch of layers I expect to have all the new ones selected.

Have a look:

Can you install the latest version of After Effects and see if the issue persists?

Let us know. I am moving this thread from Bugs to Discussions for now.

Thanks,

Solid/shape + pre-comp: depends if the solid/shape is on top or below. If above fine, below not working.

Shape + Solid: fine.

It looks like there is an issue with the Precomp. The three precomps are instances of the same and I've used some master properties to change the text. So I guess there is where the issue is. If you swap those precomps wiith other precomps that don't have master properties, it all seems to work fine.

Thanks. I can duplicate the issue in your project but only when selecting a pre-comp and a shape layer and doing the duplication. If I select a solid and a pre-comp it selects correctly. Same with Shape and Solid. Is that the same experience for you?
