Thanks a lot! This really help!
Not exactly what I wanted but I think it will do for now. I guess Pre-composing it would not allow access to those layers unless copied over to the comp I'm working in after the pre-copse.
It seems like this way would end up messing a lot of things up, in regards to keeping things organized. you know? Only if there was a "cleaner" way of doing it.
Thanks again!
