Hi AE team!

I've stumbled across a bug when loading layers with multiple elements inside them and making them 3D.

It appears to have a difficult time deciding what to show in front, while the Classic 3D renderer doesn't have this issue.

Hi everyone,

Thanks for taking the time to look into the issue and comment on it.

I'd figured it already that there was some index thing going on because both shapes are on the same spot. The thing that made me file a bug report, however, was the different behavior between the render engines.

Thanks for the solutions! If I'm planning to use 3D for a purpose like that, I'll use the workaround method. :ˆ)

Kind regards,
Onno

Hi again @Onno------,

Apologies I forgot to mention this earlier, but there is actually a workaround for this. The issue lies with how opaque shapes are rendered, but transparent shapes do not experience the same problem. I downloaded your project and confirmed that if you set Group 1's Opacity to 99% (see screenshot), the z-fighting is fixed.
