    Hi Folks,

    i am rendering a desert with three palms, all imported vector graphics from illustrator. My Problem is that 2 trees are sharp, but the third one isnt. all the setting are same for every composition.

    Somebody familiar to this problem?

    You may be used to vector art always looking crisp in illustrator, but AE works with raster images which are made up of pixels. It converts vector images to raster images to make this work. What you’re decribing might be occurring because you’ve scaled the image up or zoomed into it with a 3d camera. Try hitting the continuously rasterize switch for the layer in the timeline panel (it looks kind of like a sun). If you can’t see the switches, hit F4.
