| The MB rule for comps, as well as, nested comps is simple to remember if you know/understand that MB settings are applicable to a comp, based on the transformations of layers that occur within the comp. So, if you want to override the MB settings for a nested comp; using the MB settings of the parent comp, you will click on the nested comp/layer's Continuously Rasterize switch. This brings all the Transforms from the child comp (to be calculated together with the parent comp's Transforms) into the current/parent comp. Now that the child's transforms are effectively in the parent comp, the child comp's MB result will be based on the parent comp's MB settings. Should you want to do a second instance of nesting with the child comp, then repeat with the Continuously Rasterize routine. As long as you remember this "The MB rule for comps, as well as, nested comps is simple to remember if you know/understand that MB settings are applicable to a comp, based on the transformations of layers that occur within the comp." Of course, one should also know what the Continuously Rasterize switch does BUT that's the simple stuff that is generally known by not necessarily seasoned users.

I typically end up with many nested comps that I need to change the shutter angle on after I have built and animated my show. I know if I was smart I'd make the adjustment BEFORE I do all the grunt work, but I aint that smart. I always thought the top level comp dictated the setting for its nested comps. I believe it still works that way for frame rate (?) and you can set a comp to preserve its frame rate thus over-riding the master setting. Is there such a behaviour for shutter angle? Or is it as it seems to me that this is the normal behaviour. That is, shutter angle will always adhere to the comps setting, regardless of where it is nested. Is there a way to set a comps shutter angle based on its master? Adam Mercado Influxx Media Production Fullerton, CA Moving Images.
