Can't create video group in Photoshop 2019

I recently learned that you're supposed to be able to drag layers together in the timeline to automatically create a video group, allowing you to split the layer and keep each piece on the same track. This would make animating 10000x easier, but it doesn't work. I try to drag the layers together and it only wants to keep them on separate tracks. Can anyone think of a setting I might have to change? Is this a bug with CC 2019?

Had the same issue. If you go to the timeline settings button (the one that you can enable onion skin, set the timeline frame rate etc.) there should be the "Enable Auto-Grouping of Clips". If you select that, it will work. At least mine worked. Hope that helps...:)

Hi there,

Welcome to the Adobe Community!

This does not seem like a bug, as I am able to group that layers. You may try dragging one layer onto the other layer to create a group layer.


Let us know how it goes.
