Selecting Entire Composition Instead of Layer

New Here ,
Mar 23, 2025 Mar 23, 2025

For some reason, every time I select a shape object, the entire composition is selected, instead just the shape. It also doesn't "auto select" each layer like it normally would. I have another composition open and it selects the shape objects just fine. I'm not sure if I accidentally changed something or not. Even when I select "Composition - Retain Layer Sizes", it doesn't work. The first image is the issue. The second image is what I want.Screenshot 2025-03-23 202403.pngScreenshot 2025-03-23 202533.jpg

We can get it checked.

What happens if you select the layer from the Timeline panel? Do you still get the issue? If yes, please share the After Effects project file and the Illustrator file with me for testing. Feel free to share the file via DM if you do not want to share it publicly.

Let me know.


Thanks,
Nishu
