Duplicating pre-comps that have graphs

Community Beginner ,
Mar 28, 2019 Mar 28, 2019

Hi all,

I put together a short animation that has 3 graphs. I designed the graphs in pre-comps.

They have the same variables, style and color. I only needed to change the data points attached to them. So I created one and then duplicated it twice. When I changed the last one I realized all the graphs now had the same numbers. It's behaving as if all 3 graphs are the same/connected. Does anyone know how to isolate each graph? I would hate to redo each one. Please help! Anyone!


Thank you!

You need to duplicate the composition in the Project Panel.  If you duplicate in the timeline you're only duplicating the layer, not the actual composition.  Once you duplicate in the project panel your comps will get sequantial suffixes.  You can then go into them and make changes without effecting the others
