Simple question!

Post by chrisheadrick »

For the first time ever after years of using the program, one of my layers on the Timeline shrunk down to a sliver, and I can't find a way to restore it!

I had four layers going, each a different color; this one being blue. I hit something….a double click, or a wrong key, and the blue layer closed down to a sliver of blue between two other layers.

Now, I know how to collapse and expand layers using the arrow to the left of the layer's name, but this is different; an even smaller collapse, down to just a thin line. Never had this before! How do I open that layer back up?

Thanks so much for your help on what is most likely a very, very easy question! C

Is it because the Color Group BLUE has been unchecked (hidden) in the Color Groups panel ?

If the BLUE color group has been unchecked then it will only show as a thin blue line and won't show again until you check the BLUE color group again .
