Revealing footage in a composition

In large or complex projects it can be difficult to locate specific instances of footage used, especially if you use items more than once. Using the Reveal in Composition command, you can easily locate and select an instance of a footage item in any of its locations in the Timeline window.

To reveal a footage item in the Timeline window:

Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac OS) the footage item in the Project window and choose Reveal in Composition; then select the specific instance you want to reveal (Composition Name, Layer Name).
