FIXED:COMP Select doesn't pull all attribs from source panel

Hi, currently I’m on:
099 2017.10000 x64 windows 10

I’ve noticed this on 088, but I was able to remedy it via the alignment properties of the select comp.

Some things like margin, and horizontal align which work on the main panel’s children, does not carry over to the select comp.

This has been around a while so I may be mistaken about some details but since I can’t find any way around this when using select comps thought I’d ask!

Hi.
Select COMP was always a bit strange in its implementation, from 88 as you’ve noted.
The next build will now mirror its internal justify, margin, crop texture, child offset, fit settings, to that of the source.

Alternatively you might use an OP Viewer Panel to get the exact layout of the source.

Cheers,
Rob.

Awesome! Thanks and I will try that implementation out too.

This method with op viewer vs select COMP seems to work wonderfully at first glance. Are there any glaring differences between the two methods in terms of performance, or usability or otherwise?

I can’t think of any offhand, as they both ultimately are recreating the selected UI panel.
Layout can diverge as described.
Please let us know if you do encounter any artifacts though.
Cheers,
Rob
