Transform Layer

The transform layer has no visual content but has a transform property. It is used to add another coordinate system into a transform hierarchy.

Transform layer

Animate the movement of multiple layers at once#

The common way to animate multiple layers at once is using groups layers.

You can also use transform layers to animate the movement of multiple timeline layers together. They can be particularly useful for this when the layers to be moved in sync are visually interleaved with other layers that should not be moved. In that case, it can be cumbersome to animate the movement using group layers.

In order to animate the movement of multiple layers at once using transform layers:

  1. Add a transform layer via the layer list.
  2. Open the transform hierarchy screen.
  3. Drag the transform layer into the hierarchy section.
  4. Parent all layers that you want to be animated to the transform layer.
  5. Select and animate the transform layer using keyframes and the transform tool.
