im changing a layer to a 3d layer here,  but it is giving me an icon i havent seen before, with 3 arrows instead of the usual one with a little cube

when i rotate the layer it also doesnt seem to behave the same,  as in,  the comp will rotate, but the images inside the comp remain fixed as though they were not 3d 

 

any ideas?

    I was having the same issue, found this post and saw Mylenium's note about "collapsed transformations" being enabled. I dug and dug to learn more about collapsed transformations, what that means and how to disable them, and still don't really know what they are and why my comp has them, but I discovered that if you toggle the little star icon to the right of the shy icon, it will turn your 3D arrow icon into the cube icon you're looking for.

        3D animation settings

         

        The rest would require more info about your project structure, as apparently you have enabled collapsed transformations, which has its own repercussions. Cropped screenshots are useless for a deeper diagnosis since we can't see the actual layer structure and comp window.
