Question

When I select the top layer and release to layers - I can't drag the layers outside of the group. I'm trying to import to After Effects, but it imports as one illustrator file. 

 

I can't attached the Illustrator file - I get error: 

  • The attachment's shapeuse.ai content type (application/postscript) does not match its file extension and has been removed. I've included a screen grab. I can't drag the layers

That screenshot shows before releasing to layers?

I figured it out. I was selecting "Indicated Selected Art" (the circle to the right of that layer). When I didn't select anything but layer and did the release to layers sequence it worked. Thanks tons

Shoot now it's not working again. The image was after release to layers. Thanks
