jaggied edges PSD with corner pin effect

Do you have Adaptive Resolution enabled? What res is your PSD?

No, I didn’t have adaptive resolution turn on. It’s not just in preview, I can see the jaggied edge in the rendered file as well. The resolution of the psd is 900 x 300 px, 72 dpi. It seems to me that it has something to do with the size of the corner pin. I don’t see the jaggied edge if my corner pin area is big, say a quarter of the size of SD. But it’s very visible when it is small, about 90 x 30 px is this case. That’s something I don’t understand.

Hi,

Sorry about the late reply – I had my notification turned off by accident.
The corner pin isn’t really designed to crush something that small as I understand it. If you want something that small, I’d resize it in photoshop first and then bring it in to AE.

Again, sorry about the late reply. Hope this helps.

I agree with KJ, but if you can’t resize the image in PS for some reason, you can apply AE’s alpha blur after the corner pin (might need to apply a small edge choke first).

Thank you everyone! I will try to resize the psd beforehand. I didn’t do that because I thought it’s better to have a higher resolution psd, turns out it isn’t better.
