Is it possible to scale Illustrator files inside After Effects and retain the vector quality?

I imported an Illustrator file into my After Effects project and scaled the ai file to 200%, but noticed that is pixelated.  Is there a way to keep the ai file vector based inside After Effects.

Note:  I attempted to use the "Create Shapes from Vector Layer" and the paths all show up, but the fill and stroke colors disappear?? 

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I am using CS6 Creative Cloud on a Windows 8 with 16 gig of ram

Thanks,

Paul

Sure: turn on the layer's Continuously Rasterize switch.  It looks like a little sun with says of sunlight on it.  If your layer is truly vector -- not just a bitmap image passed through Illustrator -- the edges will look great.
