Subject: 3d cube edge/outline thickness problem
To: After Effects Mail List <AE-List@media-motion.tv>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

I've made a simple cube out of shape layers. Each face has a white
border running the perimeter so that the edges show up as white
lines.The problem is that some edges show up fatter and others thinner
depending on the orientation of the cube. I can't think of a good way
to keep the edges consistently thick as the cube rotates. I considered
some sort of 2d solution to be composited on top of the faces, but
then I would have to write some crazy code to determine if an edge is
in front or behind the cube, and then change its transparency. Any
ideas? thanks.
