  [help] effect messes up with a text mask ???

  Posted by Alexandre Mitschi on January 8, 2008 at 4:48 pm

  Hi folks,

  I’m experiencing a little problem here.

  I’m having a text, 3d enabled, and slight camera movement.
  Did it with exactly as it is in this tuorial:

  After adding a camera and enabling the depth of field, the text just .. messes up? This is not a camera problem, but a “fx” problem, because the problem happens when i clic on the “fx” button on the text layer (you’ll get it, just see the pic 😉

  How can I fix this?

  ps: I’ve posted a pic that shows visually the problem, find it here: http://www.morzar.ch/mess/fxlayer.jpg

  What effect did you apply to the text-layer?
  If the effect messes up 3d, try precomping
  That is, put the text and the effect in a 2d comp and that comp 3d in your comp.
  normaly fixes the problems..
