    Hi.

    I created a path with the shape of an arc so that I could make something look like a pendulum movement. How can I make the object associated follow the path one side and then coming back again, infinite times?

    Thank you.

    I wouldn’t do it that way. Instead, move the anchor point of the object up high, and then apply an Oscillate parameter behavior to the Rotation parameter of the layer. Instant pendulum.
