Not sure if this is a bug or if I'm just missing something content-wise. Building a PASeq with two layers. The top layer has an alpha channel, the base layer does not.
First, I tick the PASeq record box to make sure I'm recording.
Next, I set up the PASeq by going to the editor and making sure the Mask Playback, Layer Playback and View Playback flags are turned on.
Then, I change the current view mode from 'view current' to 'view all', load in the source footage for the base layer and I record the source context keyframe. I do the same thing for the alpha layer.
Now I expect that when I play back the PASeq back, the view settings should retain the "view all" setting. Instead, the view reverts back to "view current".
What's going on here? How can I fix this?
As always, thanks for your time and your talents.

Came up with a workaround - Loaded in my source clip and then alt + clicked on the keyframe in the PASeq editor to overwrite the current keyframe. Seems to do the trick.
I think the layer info associated with an action step is recorded when you initially record an action step.
So at that point it's then associated with the action step. Changing the layer setup and then adding a keyframe isn't going to change the action step's layer association.
Selecting the action step and then running the Interface to Action Step context menu does let you change it after the fact i believe.
When you say you option clicked a new keyframe, do you mean the keyframe at from time 1, or later in the timeline? Keyframe 1 might be unique in that it's kind of the equivalent of Interface to Action step.
