Duplicating layers in numerical order

Hi community.

 

Is it possible when duplicating layers, to have the layer one on top, then the rest will stack in numeric order? When Im duplicating this shape, Im making a lot of layers, number one goes down the bottom, then number 2 on top of it. Then I need to restack them from one going on the top, then manually stacking each numbers accordingly. is there an option for the layers to descend numerically?

 

Im doing the sequence layers method, and my animation is in reverse due to the layer numbers not descending, thats why Im asking for this information.

Thank you.

For those who don't feel like watching the video.

In AE layers paste in the order they are selected, so:

1. Select the layers in the order you want them. In the example presented here select the bottom one first, hold shift and then select the top one.

2. Cut the layers. Edit > Cut or use the keyboard shortcut.

3. Paste the layers.

Hola si quieres hacer eso en vez de usar CMD D para duplicar usa COPY - PASTE eso las ordena tal como las quieres.
Es algo que uso muy a menudo.
