  • Super quick question on mask paths: copying only a selection of points…

    Posted by Caspar Stracke on December 20, 2017 at 5:30 am

    Dear Cows, got bit rusty with masking. Can somebody be so kind and either point me to a thread / tutorial with same topic or maybe answer the following with one simple sentence?

    How can I copy and paste just a number of selected points in a mask path, leaving the rest of my points untouched when pasting them elsewhere on another key point in timeline?
    I have managed that in the past, but could not find any tutorial for this specific think.
    Anybody?
    (Much thanks in advance!)

    Caspar

    Thanks Dave,

    So nice to see you are still around here!

    Maybe it was only possible in older versions, but I clearly remember a way to paste only a selection of points, something with a typical modifier like option +command +V.
    I have a very complicated mask of which I want to safe a large number of masking path in the new keyframe, but still copying a lot from the previous keyframe…
