  • 3d layer scrubbing issue

    Posted by Rick Neely on November 17, 2013 at 10:27 pm

    Likely a minor issue but I can’t find a solution,

    doing a basic Com in AE CS3 (did this on my macbook pro with no issue yesterday). I had three layers- 2 text, and an image, I enable 3d on do a camera & null parented layer. I scrub the timeline between to keyframes and the text moves in 3d space, but the 3d image Layer disappears while scrubbing. when I stop scrubbing, it re-appears at it’s proper position. Not a BIG deal but I want to see the movement.

    Am I missing a simple setting? Any quick help or idea?

    thanks!

    I’d suggest you reset your preferences. Hold Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS) while the application is starting.

    Sorry, I thought I was posting in the thread above. I don’t think you need to reset your preferences.

    Rather, click the lightning bolt icon at the bottom of the comp viewer window and check your fast preview settings.
