Has anybody been able to use the Tumble FX? Whenever I try to use it, the object dosn't do anything. It just stays still. Anyways, as usual, any help would be appreciated. Randy.

I tried it once, and couldn't get it to work either. Kevin Ushko Edmonton, Alberta

I have used the Tumble effect but couldn't get it to look quite how I wanted. But since you haven't even gotten it to move at all then I would say you did something wrong. You have to group the objects that you want to tumble with a parent object or axis. For example, if you want to tumble letters then you have to group the individual letters to an axis and save the group and then add the effect to it. The parent axis will not move but the ones grouped to it will. Are you trying to do this to just a single ungrouped object? The problem I was having was that I was trying to get some letters to tumble into the camera view but they would never end in the right alignment, the letters were pointing in the wromg dirrection. Finally I had to do the effect backwards and then make an anim in the reverse. – via Whap!

I was trying to do this on a single object. Are you trying to tell me that is won't work on single solitary objects? Randy.
