  • Replicator tutorial: Drawing Lines

    Posted by Doyle Rockwell on June 1, 2005 at 12:22 am

    Hey All,

    I’ve noticed that there have been a number of people asking how to do Indiana Jones-style drawn-on lines in Motion. There’s that neat trick using text on a path (Patrick?) and some particle methods, but the replicator in Motion 2 makes it even easier, with more flexibility.

    I slapped together a brief tutorial, which can be found at https://homepage.mac.com/specialcase/

    Good luck!
