  • Layers intersecting each other :(

    Posted by Gustavo Cedeno on March 6, 2008 at 9:21 pm

    I´m animating layers in an composition, but when I tried to move each layer to front one of them stays behind while the plane 3d move forward.
    It is keeping a layer compared to the other while the camera passes through them. How can I fix that? Is always the last one. If I tried to put in front of the first happen with other.

    Tks 4 your help

    It’s hard to know what’s happening from your description. Could you upload a picture of your timeline?

    You have to host the image somewhere on the internet. If you have your own website you can put it there. If not you can upload it to http://www.photobucket.com or http://www.imageshack.us, then link to it here, or embed it (there’s usually code given to embed in a webpage).

    From your image my guess is that either you are using Layer Styles on the layers inside the pre-comps, on the pre-comps themselves, or there is a 2D layer (adjustment layer?) somewhere in the pre-comps.

    If you turn the ‘Collapse Transformations’ switch off do the layers still intersect this way?
