Would like effects to go beyond layer size…
Hey there you all. I’m sorry for being such a nube all the time.
One thing that is always a hassle for me is that most effects only extend to the limits of a given layers dimenions. You know what am I saying? Example: Rays….only extending to the edges of the layer, rather than the comp size, which would be desirable. I know a few ways to solve that: 1. I can precompose the whole comp and then apply the effect,(however I don’t always want the effects to be applied globally) or 2. I can precompose the particular layer in question, (make it’s comp a larger size and add the effect within that precomp.
However, are their any simpler ways?
The more I play with precomps, the more confusing things can get and sometimes, flicking the collapse transformations switch doesn’t always work that well, it seems.
Any tippers on this kinda thing??
Sankyou berry much!
