We need to see the timeline with the modified properties of the problem layer showing. Select the layer, press uu, take a screenshot and then drag it from the finder/explorer window to the forum or copy and paste the file. The Drag and Drop here area is a pain for users to click and download the links, so avoid using that to share images.

 

I am guessing that you either have an effect applied to the layer that will not extend beyond the layer bounds or that the layer is in a nested comp (pre-comp), and you have scaled the layer instead of scaling the pre-comp.

Ok but did you use a mask? Is it a precomposition? A cropped screenshot does not help much, you must give more information in order to try to help you and include a full screenshot where you can see the Layers of your affected element.
