Anyone, I am having problems using TIME/SCALE SEGMENT on a path in the Keyframer. For example, I would import a circle from Shaper and use it as a path in the Keyframer with total frames at 100. When I look at the frames on the path, they are all evenly spaced. Now I want to increase the number of frames to 200 frames, for instance. I use TIME/SCALE SEGMENT, and now the 200 frames are there, but they are not evenly spaced. What am I doing wrong? Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Mike C.

Michael, << paths aren't scaled correctly in keyframer…?>> I'm not sure if you mean that you'd like the path to shange accordingly? Can you just Keyframer-Paths-get Shaper again? Are you trying to import a path to a sub-segment of the total frames and now you'd like to add more frames? I use the "define active segment command often when creating multiple paths for a partial piece of my animations. It is activated when you click on the long red bar in the keyframer. After clicking on it, when you select 10-87, any Path-Get-Shaper will interpolate and apply the selected polygon only to that segment. It's very handy and worth exploring the possibilitoff ies. jonas[adesk]
