In AE CS6 I have a 3D timeline with 50 or so layers, a camera and a light= . With the light turned on, the DoF gets disabled. Not in any setting, just visually. With the light turned off DoF gets 'reactivated' in as much as the distant objects get soft. I have tried messing with layer order but that does not appear to have na= y impact. What is the trick to get DoF to work with a light. Light Settings z pos =3D -3200 type =3D point intensity =3D 77% Camera Settings z pos =3D -3000 zoom =3D 1200 DoF =3D on focus =3D 2200 aperture =3D 250 blur =3D 80% cheers adam
