Still offsetting layers one by one in After Effects 2026? There’s a faster way now.

Proportional Scrubbing just landed in After Effects BETA, and it’s a feature you’ll wonder how you lived without.

Normally, scrubbing a value with multiple layers selected applies the same change to all of them. This one splits the change based on the order you selected them:

↳ First selected layer = 0% change
↳ Last selected layer = 100% change
↳ All layers in between = spread out automatically

Cascades, spreads, and gradient-style animations that used to eat up minutes now take a single drag. No offset calculations, no repeated tweaking.

How to use it:

① Select your layers in the order you want the effect to flow (order matters)

② Hold the shortcut:
Mac → Cmd + Option
Windows → Ctrl + Alt

③ Scrub any selected property and watch the values distribute

A small update that saves a lot of time. Try it on your next cascade animation and see for yourself. 🔥
