If you turn on the menu/animation/path selection mode, you will be able to select the path with one click.

If you check the “Start Up” checkbox, it will be enabled automatically when AE starts.
Tips & Notes
Please make use of the AE standard shortcut “Ctrl + Up/Down arrow keys”.
You can use this shortcut to select the layer above or below.
This makes it easier to change selection even when it is difficult to select due to overlapping shape layers.
To deselect, you need to click the viewer twice.
This is because when you first deselect, the shape group is selected (this is a specification of AE).
It is not possible to select all the paths of multiple shape layers (this is a specification of AE).
