• | Duplicate and move solid automatically

Okay I have a 1920X1080 comp and i want 8 solids evenly on the 1920 side. so that means each solid has to be 1080 by 240. I there a way to automate this like you can in Illustrator? Right now i have to duplicate and move each solid?

There's an align panel in After Effects with options to distribute layers.

Set the anchor point of your first solid to 0,0 and then set the position to 0,0. Make sure it is the first layer in the comp.
In the position property add the expression.
x = (index-1)*240;
[x,transform.position[1]];
Then duplicate the layer (ctrl+d) / (cmd+d) 7 times.
