untill now AE don't have this very usefull feature "exclude an layer from the adjustment layer" . i think this feature should be in after effect. now adjustment layer will affect all layers below and  no way to exclude an layer out.

Yeah, would be useful, for sure!

 

If you're interested, you could use Workflower (that I coded) to create an adjustment layer to selected layers only:

Other than that, you could also use a layer you want to exclude as an inverted track matte to your adjustment layer (only if you use AE 23).

yeah i agree. you are right. most of time we just need to apply effect directly to layer or make pre-compose, but when you work on automate side, i will be useful.

I don't think we need such a feature.
