Problems keeping things 2D when moving things around.

Post by Daners »

So, for some reason, whenever I move a group (lets say the head of a character) by using the layer move tool. Let's say I want to move the head to the other side of the frame. Everything shifts around like its in 3D space. I just want everything flat like a south park style animation. I don't want to see the layers all warp and such as the group layer is moved across the frame. Is there a way to turn this feature off so I can work on just a flat 2D space? Any help would be appreciated thanks.

Probably your layers have Z values different of zero. Use the transform layer tool to check and fix their position.
