Line emitter question
Posted by Bill Hamell on October 1, 2006 at 11:12 amIs there a way to move the pivot point of a line emitter?
I would like it to pivot on one end rather than from the center.Thank you,

October 1, 2006 at 1:07 pmThank you Allen,
To get point 2 to revolve around point 1 I would start with point 2 at 0 degrees relevent to point 1 advance few frames set point 2 at 90 degrees to point 1 advance a few frame set point 2 at 180 degres to point one etc., till I get a 360 degree rotation?
Is this correct?
Thank you,

Thank you, Elves I will give that a try. 🙂
