Have you ever had duplicate files in your project that you want do delete? You can of course delete them manually, but the problem here is that if the clip is used in your project, it will disappear from the timeline when deleting it in the project window, but there is a way to avoid this.
As you can see in this example, I have imported the trailer to my eurotrip from 2018, but four times. These clips are used one time each in the timeline and I want to delete three of them, so that I instead use only one clip four times.
I do this by simply going up to the menu and under Edit, I click “Consolidate Duplicates” and if you like short time-saving tutorials like this, please subscribe to the channel and hit the notification bell so that you can get notified whenever I publish a new short tutorial, just like this one.
Thanks for watching, keep learning, and have a great day!

![How to right align text in After Effects
How do you right-align a text with a background in Adobe After Effects so that the background grows to the left when you add more text?
That’s what I will show you in this tutorial.
First, we have a composition with two layers. A text layer at the top (with right aligned text) and a shape layer underneath.
Now open the Shape Layer, go to Contents, Rectangle 1 and open Rectangle Path.
Here, you want to add 2 expressions.
Hold down “option” or “alt” while clicking the stopwatch next to Size.
Copy and paste the Size-expression from the video description below into this text field.
(Replace the text that is already in there.)
EXPRESSION 1️⃣:
s =thisComp.layer(Example123); x = s.sourceRectAtTime(time-s.inPoint,true).width; y = s.sourceRectAtTime(time-s.inPoint,true).height; [x,y]
Make sure to change the example text to the EXACT name of your text layer.
(Notice that this is case sensitive, so use uppercase and lowercase letters accordingly.)
Now hold down “option” or “alt” again and click the stopwatch next to “Position”. Copy and paste the “Position-expression” from the video description into this field.
EXPRESSION 2️⃣:
content(Rectangle 1).content(Rectangle Path 1).size/2
Now, go down to transform and set the rotation to 180.
and finally, adjust the shape layers position and size to the text and now when you change the length of any of the rows of text, the background will adapt to it.
But if add or remove rows, you need to reposition the background.
