Hi currently when you split an audio layer it closes the waveform.
Please change this.
I recently learned the shortcut L L so it makes it less painful but when you wanna cut up your audio layer in Ae this workflow is very painful.
Here is a video of the issue https://i.gyazo.com/3c1c8d9ac5dd0a48c2ed111301302995.mp4
Expected behavior:
When you have the waveform open of the audio layer, and your splitting or duplicating, keep the waveform open!
Much love,
