Multilayer frame copy/paste doesn't work the way it did anymore

[VTom1968]

Describe the bug
The copy and paste buttons in the Duik Animation panel have ceased to work

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create twelve video layers
2. Create like eighty keyframes, distributed over the layers, in transform properties
3. Select all of these keyframes in one lasso selection and press copy, move timeline cursor and press paste

Error description, if any
No error

Expected behavior
The copying and pasting of many keyframes over several layers at the same time always worked fine, I guess I expected it still to work fine

Screenshots

System (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows 10
• Version of After Effects: 22.4.0
• Version of Duik: 16.2.30

Additional context

I don't see any reason why it would stop working; maybe there's something specific in this comp, can you post your project so we can run some tests?
Thanks

Hi Nicolas, I’m very honored to receive an answer from you personally, whose work I respect and admire greatly. Indeed it must be something in the comp, it just beats me what it could be. I will send a copy of the comp as soon as possible, somewhere during the weekend or right after. If you could indeed have a look at it, I would appreciate this very, very much. I am sure this issue can be solved, overall the Duik tool is rock solid when used properly and the best addition ever to a program like AE. It’s a totally fantastic job you and your colleagues have done, I can not emphasize this enough. I will report back soon. With gratitude, Tom Verweij Verstuurd vanaf mijn iPhone

Hai Nicolas, Hereby I send you the aep with the one comp that delivers the error. You will see a bunch of keyframes on a bunch of layers. I have the relevant parameters uncollapsed so you can see them straight away. It’s a whole lot of keyframes on more than ten layers. When you select all of them and press the COPY button of Duik Animation, it looks like the computer copies them, but pressing the PASTE button has no effect. Nothing happens. Ofcourse it could be my RAM memory but that is 32 Gb so for a project less than 1 Mb that would be strange. Any help is very much appreciated!

Hi,
I didn't get the aep, email attachements are not forwarded to Github, you'll have to come post it directly on the website.

Thanks

Hi Nicolas, sorry for the long wait, I got ill.
Anyway, here is the .aep file as a zip. I hope you will encounter the same error as I did, e.g. not being able to copy all keyframes from all layers and paste them again. Looks like memory gets stuck or something.
Any comment is greatly appreciated!
Kind regards, Tom

Hi,
The problem is with the Liquify effect, its values can't be copied. (That's a limitation from Ae);
In Duik Ángela (17) these properties will be silently ignored instead of stopping the script.

That explains it. Thanks a lot!
