    Hello,

    Can you animate a path line? As the words pass by the line might go lower or slant etc? And then change the slant?

    Thank you,
    Terry

    Yes, you can certainly animate a text path, if that’s what you mean. Turn on Record Animation, select the Edit Points tool and keyframe your path – or you can simply rotate it or scale it or whatever you want to do. The text will now follow your animated path. You can also do this with th built-in paths, but you probably want the more flexible option of using Geometry.
