I have imported a Photoshop CC 2015.1 document into After Effects CC 2015.1.
I have animated one of the layers. I want to create an alternate animation for the same layer. When I duplicate the layer, either with Copy/Paste or with Edit > Duplicate, then work on the copy, my changes happen to both copies.
How can I duplicate the layer and turn it into a completely independent composition?
Many thanks.
As per @AndrewH’s comment and some other things I found online, the trick is to Duplicate the composition in the Project panel, not in the Timeline.
