Question

White fill isn't perfect white...

I have this white background set to white but for some reason, it won't get pure white but a grayish color. Transparency is at 100% and there are no layers above it causing any issues. I've brought the "White Background" layer to the top of the comp with the same problem. Any ideas what could be causing this? It happens to any new shape layer I create in the comp - the color won't perfectly match what I select.

    Be sure to check the setting to the fill color of your shape, like opacity or other settings

    There's no layers above it?   Looks like there's a ton of layers above it.

    Sorry...you know for sure none of them are causing the problem. I'll take your word for it I guess.

    It's just that your inclusion of the screen shot is pretty curious.

    If you don't feel the need to "show" that all your settings are correct, why would you feel the need to "show" that your layer isn't white?

    Why would you expect us to take your word that you've done everything correctly but also include a screenshot to "prove" that your layer isn't white?

    It's not logical.

    If you're going to include a screenshot, at least have it serve some purpose.
