    Hi Laura!
    I just saw a comment of yours from June (below) without a reply. Did I ever get back to you on this? If not, I am truly very sorry. I have left comments for everyone who has had a question about Overlap and would never have ignored a support request. Are you still having this issue or did you get it solved? If not, please send me the file in question ([email protected]) and I'll look into it.

    Thanks!
    Kevin

    When using shape layers, I am noticing that some parameters are not responding to Overlap, despite Overlap allowing me to go through the motions of setting them up and it all appearing to work on the surface. Ultimately, the shapes will not respond to the overlap controls. My specific example is trim paths. Is this a case of having the trim paths modifier in the correct order in the shape layer stack? Or does overlap not work with some parameters?

    All the shapes have the trim paths modifier applied, and in the same order for each shape. I'm also using AE 2014 in this case.

    I'm also having problems with shape layers just not working at all. I can get so far in setting up the groups, but when I try and press OK I get this message:

    Error at line 13 in property 'Opacity' of layer 3 (xoxo) in comp 'xoxo '
    Unterminated string constant

    I've had this on several shape layer / multi group setups. Any pointers would be welcome.
