Setting Layer Visibility Properties

You can set layer visibility properties to specify how the layer is rendered or “seen” by the camera.

To set the visibility options:

1. Select any of the following in the Reaction tab.

   Thumbnails:	Size (in pixels):
   Visible to Camera	The layer is visible to the camera. If you hide the layer from the camera, the layer may still cast a shadow and can be seen by a light.
   Cast Shadow	The layer can cast shadows.
   Receive Shadow	The layer receives shadows cast by itself and by other layers in the composition.
   Front Face	The front faces of the layer will be rendered.
   Back Face	The back faces of the layer will be rendered.
   Time Dilation	Modifies the motion blur that affects layers animated in the scene. You can give the layer the appearance of moving at a different speed than is set for Motion Blur in the Render tab.
