Hi again David :)

Copying a section of the timeline in PPro and Pasting into a 1920/1080 AE comp the elememts come in and a layer is added but nothing is showing on the timeline. I thought copying and pasting was supported in 3.0 or maybe I'm doing something wrong.

AE pastes it not at the timeline marker but at the timecode in the PPro sequence. OK. Anotehr weird Adobeism. Is there any reason for that? Maybe pasting back ito PPro?

"Another wierd Adobeism" -- I need to make the T-shirts.

Yes that is annoying. They clearly did it intentionally, but I don't know why (your guess is good.)

I'm down for one. Honestly working with their products over the last 6 months has me shaking my head in wonder at their design choices. --- when I'm not hailing down excruciatingly painful curses on their heads.

Why not just open the PPro project itself in AE?

Hmm... Don't know if it's in the manual ;-), but: Ctrl-V pastes at the PPro timecode and Ctrl-Alt-V pastes at the CTI (current timeline indicator).
