WHY AFTER EFFECTS SAY "invalid image buffer size"

 WHY DO I GET THIS EVENTHOUGH MY MAX COMP SIZE IS 30K?



BECAUSE "some effects (like blurs, glows, drop shadows, etc.) can expand the image buffer for a layer."

from: https://creativecow.net/forums/thread/after-effects-error-invalid-image-buffer-size/


fix: make sure there arent any of these effects on such a BIG precomp!
