Collapse transformation - 3D breaks suddenly

Question

I'm trying to place dollar bills inside a wallet that's being closed, using precomps.

So let's simplify it - let's say I have a comp (comp1) with 3 solid layers - A (the back of the wallet),B (wallet pocket), C (the front of the wallet).

B is positioned on top of A, and C is rotation to be closed on top of B (like a book that's being closed).

Now I place this comp in a new comp, and add a new solid D (bills).

I enabled collapse transformations for comp1, and I want to insert my new solid D in between A and B.

Now that works well indeed, but when C starts rotating on top of B, the 3D messes up and my new solid D moves ON TOP of B and below C.

I hope that was clear enough

Any ideas?

Thank you

Start by adding an actual camera layer to your comp. At times the automatic imaginary comp camera can cause clipping errors because it can't determine an exact distance of different content. For anything beyond that would indeed require more info like layer sizes, stacking order in the timeline, what effects may be at work etc. and screenshots.
