Hi, would it be possible to include also the same option as in Setup->Groups TC Source->Lowermost used? That would cover most of our current cases, where the source is the lower clip. For example in a Comp3D with a background clip and a foreground clip (lowermost), the actual TC source is the foreground clip.

Another solution would be to include the option of honoring the GroupsTCSource selection, it would keep more consistency.
