Hi

A comp = layer with "collapse tranforms" checked inherits the motionblur settings = of the individual layers inside the comp, so thats why the motionblur = swith is non accessible. 
And if you have 3d layers inside of the comp and have a = 3d space in the main comp also, then when using the "collapse transform" = switch the 3d layers are positioned according to the 3d space in the = maincomp, and this can make them move in space.

Hope this makes sense, when = reading it again i can see it sounds more complicated than it is = :-)

when=20 I turn on the switch for =93For Comp layer: Collapse transformations=94 = of a 3D=20 layer, the layer image object changes size (becomes smaller) and the = Motion Blur=20 switch changes to a [-] (minus) symbol.

Can anyone clarify why = this is=20 happening?

Thanks
