As i Double click on shape layer it select that shape layer but if now i press any shortcut it key P,S,T & R. it's select only shape layer property not that particular shape layer property. So, i Need help to solve that problem. it's to much time consuming to go each shape layer containing several shapes to change any property.

    As far as I know there is no keyboard shortcuts to open exact shape layer properties as you do with main layer properties by using shortcut.
    In my work I do two things to make my shape layers workflow faster.
    1. I use timeline search box and f.eg if I need to access all shapes transform properties I just start typing transf... - or any other word that Is what property I need to access.

    2. I use CTRL+ (mous click on shape properties toggle arrow to reviel all settings of that layer or that property

    Or combination of those two.

    You can find all AE keyboard shortcuts here: After Effects keyboard shortcuts reference  and you can reasign those shortcuts however you wish in AE by going to edit/Keyboard Shortcuts (or by using CTRL+ALT+' ) but there is no way to assign keyboard to what you wish to do.

    You can also make a feature request here: Feature Request/Bug Report Form
