Hi,
Sometimes we need to make our compositions longer : we may start with the sub-compositions, find the correct duration, then go up to the main comps and lengthen them. This can be tedious, because either we calculate timecodes to find the correct length of the main comps, either we set a rough bigger than needed length, then shorten it manually.
When we lenghten the precomp and put the Current Time Indicator at the end, then go to the main comp, the CTI is after the end of the comp. It happens to be exactly where we want the main comp to end, so a function in the Composition menu "Trim the Comp up to Current Time Indicator" would be very useful.
Thx
