Need Help with a 2d motion, the line stroke is changing as the object moves around

Question

Hi everyone!I'm experiencing a strange issue while working on a 2D motion in After Effects. It feels like there's an invisible 3D axis where, as objects move closer to the center of the screen, they seem to recede in depth (as you can see in the files attached). This affects the stroke of my lines, making them thinner as they approach the center of the screen and thicker as they move away. Has anyone else encountered something like this or knows if this could be due to an effect or expression that might be causing it? I'm trying to keep the stroke thickness uniform.Any help would be much appreciated!

This is expected. You're moving the path/shape with its anchor point. That will scale the shape. Try clicking the path itself instead of an anchor point and dragging.

Let us know if that helps. Moving this thread from Bugs to Discussions for troubleshooting.

Thanks,
