If I duplicate the main comp, the "1 comp" will be duplicated. What about the images and text boxes? Hi,

My main comp comprise “1 comp that contains images and text boxes”.

If I duplicate the main comp, the “1 comp” will be duplicated. What about the images and text boxes?

I've tried it on 2 machines now and I get the same results - everything is duplicated except for the footage. Am I going crazy?

More complicated folder structures can get really messed up. Any idea why this is happening? thanks. This is a great script, but unfortunately, it’s not working properly for me :(
I’m running CS4 in OSX 10.5.8

If I create the exact heirarchy:

Mexico (folder)
–Main Comp (folder)
—-Mexico (comp)
–Pre-Comps (folder)
—-Mexico Text Precomp

and then follow the steps to create a brazil version, i get the following result:

Duplicated Comps (folder)
–Brazil (folder)
—-Pre-Comps (folder)
——-Brazil Text (comp)
–Brazil Main (comp)

As you can see, my Main Comp folder has disappeared and the Brazil Main (Comp) has been moved to the top layer. More complicated folder structures can get really messed up. Any idea why this is happening?

thanks.

All the precomps were copied to the new folder. However, the other folders containing footage were not copied. I'd like to see the script copy everything associated with the comp. For instance, I wanted to replace some footage in the new comp, but it was still looking at the footage in the old comp's folder. I still had to copy that folder of footage and option replace to the new comp before I command H replaced the footage in the folder. Otherwise, great script!

I happen to have the same problem I believe where top level expressions are duplicated and work fine independent of the original but anything deeper then that they still reference the original comp. I'm assuming this is because the expression is referencing comp("name of comp").etc... I thought maybe I could just tell the lower comps to reference up like ".." in html(this would allow me to duplicate fine). But after a bit or searching through google and ae forums I haven't found a way to do that or a solution to my problem. I'm not sure if I'm missing something in my setup or if there is a certain way to do this? Was this issue resolved?
