Renaming composition in Project Panel doesn't update the name in the time line

Report · Sep 16, 2020

Hey there folks,

I've been trying to solve an isue when renaming the compositions in the Project panel. When I do that nothing happens in the Timeline. The composition names don't change so I have different names of the same compositions.

I've attached a screenshot. You'll see that for instance the composition named "Mask Group" in the time line hasn't change after I've renamed it "Photo 4" in the Project Panel".

Do I need to change some settings in order to fix this? I don't want the same compositions with differents names!

Thanks in advance

Sebastian

In AE you have source names (name in project panel) and layer names (name in timeline). You can switch between both if you click on the name column.
