After I've rendered my animation, the project layers are messed up

it's got "_prop_" and "_obj_" at the end of every layer. Also I can't edit the symbols in those layers either. How can I get it back to normal?

This just happened to me as well. Several of my projects went wrong.

Everything was fine the all of a sudden a I had double the amount of layers. It seemed like they appeared out of nowhere.

The only thing I can guess is that I'm stuck in some kind special mode, but I'm lost. Maybe I hit ke by accident.

After these layers apeared I cannot access the or see it all. But when I render it all that I had done still plays.

So it there but its not.

The process is super simple,

import fish > make a graphic

take graphic and make movie clip.

Move movie clip onto stage and make aniamtion.

I'm attaching screen shot that shows 2 layers labeled:

thirteenth f_prop_

thirteenth f_obj_

It also shows the library the the thirteenth f m movie clip which is what I put on the stage and gave some motion tweens to in the timeline. There was no warning this simple process was working for weeks then I updated CC and this happens. I was just working on another fresh project, saving along the way and its happened again. I'm at a total loss, what on earth has happened, Help!

@Cryptidzoo what were trying to do ? were you trying to do test movie (Ctrl + Enter) or switching between the docs/different timelines ? Also whether you were working in timeline panel before it happened ? e.g duplicating/merging the layer, moving the layers up/down and the tools that you were using ?

Also did you try reverting the file from file menu, if yes, did it revert the file to last saved state or not ?

I can't be sure, I think I was playing with moving an object on the stage to fine tune the placement. Wasn't doing anything in the timeline as far as I was aware of. The layers just double and the names all change with these weird _prop_ and _obj_ names.

I didn't know there was revert feature. but I think I saved and saved as so often trying to get it back I can't revert it.

But really the main question is still what is this doubling and renaming of layers (_prop_ and _obj_ )?

And is it possible to get my project back?
