    Is it possible to copy a motion path, so that it becomes a shape or a mask?
    Also I want to make an open-ended mask, the manual says to dubbbel click the end point but that closes the mask.
    Any ideas?

    Thanks,

    A mask can’t be open, it has to be closed, by definition. A shape doesn’t have to be closed and the method you describe will work.
