Bounding Boxes (Importing Photoshop to After Effects)

$

Hey, I'm sorry if this is a stupid question and it seems like (hopefully) it's a one click easy fix but here goes.

 

When I import Photoshop files into After Effects the bounding boxes around the orignal grouped layers are the size of the project itself. To clarify the pre-existing layer "groups" in Photoshop that were converted to "compositions" in After Effects upon importing, all have bounding boxes that extend out to the dimensions of the entire project. When I click into the composition the layers have bounding boxes that mold to the layer size. I need the group/composition bounding box to extend to only the dimensions of the subsequent layers not the entire project. When I was using After Effects CS6 it reduced the bouding box of my group/compositions to the minimalist possible extent automatically. Now that I've been forced over to After Effects CC (on account that I use creative cloud) the bounding boxes are no longer conforming to the groups in the same manner.

 

I of course can find away around this by merging the groups and what not but I don't want to have to do that and I'm hoping there a little freaking check box or something that I'm not aware of. I don't know if this matters but I am using Windows 7 64bit. Any help is greatly appreciated.
