Question about pre-comp
Hello folks,
I’m not sure if this would be newbie question, but the fact is I don’t know.
My question is..
I have one layer that I added Shine effect in a pre-comp and I drop that pre-comp into a new comp. I see shine effect cuts off at the end of pre-comp’s size when I scale down the pre-comp . So, I’d go back to pre-comp and make the composition size bigger so that the shine effect won’t get cut off in the new comp, but is there a way that I can just make it not cut off without making my pre-comp’s size huge? once you make your pre-comp bigger than 4000×4000, AE seems to be a lot slower.Hope this make sense to you.
Thank you. -

Effect>Image control>grow bounds.

Try to select Collapse Transformation (the little ‘Sun’ icon) , next to the layer name.

If you just use grow bounds, you’ll get the same performance-issues: it needs to set up a huge 4000×4000 buffer.
There’s actually a movie/tutorial on the Trapcode site that deals with the problem and suggest several work-arounds, each with their own advantages and disadvantges:
Shine cutoff (How to avoid having the rays cut off)
perhaps in your case the adjustment-layer approach could work.

Why not put shine on the precomp rather than inside of it?
