  How do you show an objects motion path?

  Posted by Daniel Haskett on January 18, 2008 at 5:55 pm

  hey there

  sorry i know this is pretty basic ive just completely forgotten! say you have a solid and its moving across and then down, how can you show its motion path, so you can then add bezier points to it and maybe make curves or smooth the path out? it doesnt show the motion path as default which is good otherwise itd be messy but im sure therem is a way of seeing it….

  thanks!

  hey dave, yeah ive done that, and said to show for all keyframes, and selected the position property keyframes but still no joy…. im using AE CS3…. its weird and very annoying. is there anything else i could be doing wrong?
