Making Layers the Current Object

Before you can move or rotate a layer, or change its properties, you must first select it to make it the current object.

To make a layer the current object:

Do one of the following:

• Select the layer in the Workspace panel or Timeline.



• Select the layer from the Current list in the Composite Controls panel.



• Click the layer in a viewport.



The layer is highlighted in the Workspace panel and its pivot point is displayed in the viewport.

To select multiple layers in the Timeline or Workspace panel, Ctrl-click (Windows) or Command-click (Macintosh) each layer, drag a selection box around the layers, or Shift-click a range. In the viewport, you can Ctrl-click (Windows) or Command-click (Macintosh) each layer, or Shift-click each layer.
