  Is there a way to track the other end of a stroke to some point

  Posted by Mikko Kovasiipi on May 18, 2010 at 10:50 am

  Hi.

  I would like to attach one end of a straight stroke (few pixels wide line) to a null that I have tracked. I need to do this only to the one point of the line and leave the other end free. To the free end I’m typing some text. Does anyone have any good idea how to do that?

  Thanks.

  Mikko.

  Sure, use the Render>Beam effect and tie the end of the beam to the null with an expression.
