Effortlessly move markers

Move markers within the work area back and forth to fine-tune placements, with keyboard shortcuts to reverse and x10 shift, by number of frames or by seconds.

Move Markers

Adjust split marker durations

Optionally shift the start and end points of split markers independently, depending on your work area selection.

Split Markers

Copy and paste markers anywhere!

Copy or cut from multiple layers or the comp.

Paste to multiple layers or the comp, at the markers' original times or to the current time indicator, and optionally delete markers in the work area before pasting.

Copy Markers

Save your most-used markers sets to Memory Banks

These five buttons allow you to save any number of markers to memory banks, which are persistent between projects and sessions, and paste in place with a single click.

Perfect for rapidly setting marker-based animation triggers!

Memory Banks

Bulk-delete markers

Remove markers from selected layers or the comp. Limit deletion to markers within the work area, or the entire composition duration.

Delete Markers

Save and apply work area settings

Save your current work area settings before adjusting your marker selection, and restore it to your comp with one click.

Or use this to copy work area settings between comps.

Work Area

Finally jump between comp markers!

After Effects' J/K keyboard shortcuts allow you to jump between layer marker positions. However, this doesn't work for comp markers.

With one click, duplicate the comp markers to a 'dummy' guide layer, allowing super quick navigation. If you later adjust your comp markers, you can update this layer in one step.

Comp Markers

Easily animate any property with marker triggers

An easy-to-use panel guides you through setting up expression-based marker triggers, allowing you to repeat animation across layers with a single set of keyframes.

Adjust the duration, reverse the animation, apply a delay, and even use different layers or properties to drive the animation.

Marker Triggers
