Problems with pre-comps and continually rasterize…
Hey Cows,
I have an animation containing .ai vector content I’ve imported. I set each layer to continually rasterize and everything looks great!
Now I’m at a point where I need to break up some of this animation (it’s a camera doing a flyover following along some lines, passing various other elements and such… like driving, in a sense) into precomps for better workflow.
I need to add another text animation into the middle of the project, in this case, where the viewer reaches the end of one of the lines/paths. Right now, it’s all one continuous comp.My problem is when I precomp, I essentially lose the continual rasterization. I can check the box to continually rasterize on this precomp layer placed inside a new comp, but then the placement and location of everything within the precomp goes crazy. Everything ends up in seemingly random places… completely out of order and place from what I had before the precomp. If I uncheck the box, everything snaps back into place, but then the edges are pixelated… I’m at a loss!
Anyone familiar with this behavior? Am I missing a step when precomping, maybe?
Thanks for the help, folks!

I believe that this could be a case of user-error. go back to your precomp and view your setup from different POVs, especially the custom views.
Chances are that they look out of sorts there too and not only after they have been nested.
