Zooming out of timeline to see all media

Question

Greetings Community,

I'm using After Effects, and when I put a project in the timeline, it automatically adjusts to the length of the media (COOL, GREAT, AMAZING shout out to yall), but it won't let me zoom out of the time to see the entire length if I add media that is longer than the original import. Is my AE buggin, is this intentional, or am I just missing something?

AE's comp timeline is always fixed to the length of the comp. I know PP works in the opposite way. If you want to see the entire length of a clip, double-click on it to open its own "Layer Viewer". Here you can set in- and out-points too.

Hope that makes sense.
