    Puppet Tool

    Posted by Steven Hilton on January 5, 2013 at 1:51 am

    Ok So I’m placing puppet tool points on a layer. Everything goes fine until I’m at about 31 or 32 points. After that when I place more the layer starts being manipulated by the points. Which is what I want but not until I have gotten them all in place.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks in advance!

    I think I was putting them to close together. Does that make sense? I got way past 50 pins (all I needed) when I started spacing them out better and using less of them in a given area.

    Maybe I was confusing the overlap. I’m not sure, pressing forward with the project.

    Thanks so much!

    It’s unclear what you mean by “the layer starts being manipulated by the points”.
    Maybe it’s because you have too many points and some are too close to eachother… just a shot in the dark though without more info. Maybe posting a couple of screen shots – one before the issue appears and one after- will help.
