• | When pre-composing a 3d object, can you retain the z-axis values? Mine gets flattened.

Hey there,
I am using AE CS6
I have a few layers that are spread out over the z-axis. When I pre-comp them they flatten out to have the same z-axis. Is that normal? I have collapse transformations and 3d enabled for the layer.
Cheers

[Robert Maric] "I have collapse transformations and 3d enabled for the layer."
You should have Collapse Transformations switched on for the nested comp - this is absolutely necessary to each embedded layer's 3D-ness into the 'final comp'.
BTW, it may not be necessary to switch on Collapse Transformation for the layers in the precomps.

Thanks for taking the time to reply. I really appreciate it.
I was making a mistake - I was turning motion blur on instead of enabling collapse transformations ;)
Works now!
Thanks again
Rob
