Hey I have a small problem,

I'm trying out some effects and stumbled upon this "error"

Screenshot

It might be a bit hard to see the edge but the saber effect in my pre-comp creates this edges.

Anyone who knows how to get rid of this or how to fix it?

I could just reduce the glow radius but then I doesnt give me the exact effect I'd like to use.

Thanks in advance

Correct answer Mylenium

I fail to see any issue here. This is 100% user error. You have simply overcranked your glows/ blurs or the transparent areas in your artwork are not 100% clear. Simpoly tone things down and/ or apply additional masking to eliminate the excess areas.

since there was some missunderstanding with the adjustmentlayer in the screenshot being the problem heres a screenshot of the pre-comp where the actual problem is happening, you just cant see it in this screenshot since it doesnt use a camera itself

I know that this is my fault I just wanted to know if there is some way to make the layer "infinite" so the effect fades out by itself and i dont have to force the fade out with a mask or something like this.

Adjustment layers need to be 2D to work properly. You are not understanding the basics here.
