  Mask shape animation and anchor point indentifiers?

  Posted by Thomas Gabrielsen on May 29, 2006 at 3:49 pm

  Hi

  When doing a Mask shape animation in After Effects, is there any way to view and edit the anchor point identifiers? I’m sure the anchor points must have some kind of identifier. If I, for example, have a circle with four anchor points that I want to animate into a square, also with four anchor points. Then I want to define which anchor point should be at the left bottom corner. Now it seemse like they are placed in the order they where created, but it should be some way to change that order.

  Thanks in advance!

  You can define the first vertex via the right-click menu.

  Hello Mylenium. Thank you for your answer!

  Yes, I noticed. But it is limited to that define the first vertex? If so, Adobe should do something about this. Like in 3D Studio Max where you have the “Show vertex number” option.
