Mask Unlinker
Developer: Aris Melachroinos
Detaches a layer's masks from its transforms in After Effects so you can move the layer alone.
What Mask Unlinker does
Mask Unlinker lets a mask stay put while its layer moves, which normally forces you to build a separate matte layer. Select a mask, press Unlink, move the layer, and press Link to reconnect.
It works with masks on 3D layers, supporting Z rotation and X/Y position, warns when a mask has feather points, and includes KBar support with icons and instructions. A quick-select icon grabs the mask of the selected layer. It needs After Effects 2018 or later.
