Particles Don’t Appear when Solid is 3d
Following along with the Particular documentation. Created a spot light called “Emitter” and a black solid.
Light is red. when solid is 3d, I can see the particles only when light is oriented towards me. When solid is 2d, I can see the particles at all orientations, but they no longer take on the color of the light. I don’t understand.David Bark

Wait. Are you saying you made your Particular layer 3d? Don’t do that. Particular (and ANY effect that renders a pseudo-3d image) needs the layer to be comp-sized and 2d.

Check you comp from a different view where you can see the depth. Your light is probably not where you think it is.

the 2d Particular layer should be on top of all 3d layers if you want it to interact with all 3d layers in 3d space.
