Hello,

 

How do I select all the child-layers thats parented to a null, even if they have different label-colors and names? I want to select the null and press a button to select all child-layers that's connected to the null. Thought Dugr could fix this.

There is no built-in function for this nor any hierarchy walking like in 3D programs. unless it already exists on AEScripts.com, you'll likely have to create your own script for this.
