Tutorial 4 Working With Expressions 149
If you scrub through the Time Bar, you might see a frame where the RGrad is mostly
outside the workspace (probably an early frame), and light improperly bleeds in from
the edges. Where does this come from?
The Shake engine has a normally divine feature called the Infinite Workspace. With the
Infinite Workspace, nothing is cropped if it extends outside the frame. Outside1 should
cut off the RGrad, except when viewed through the hole in the ceiling element.
However, the RGrad is larger than the ceiling element, so it is not completely obscured
by the ceiling element.
To check the extended canvas:
1 In Node View, select Outside1, click the Transform tab, then Shift-click Viewport.
Viewport will help you view the extended canvas.
