    Ok, so I swear I have done this before and now it isn’t working. Looking for any insight as to what may be going on.

    In the past, I have taken certain text behaviors (such as the ‘Behind Camera’ effect) and simply changed the setting from ‘Left to Right’ to ‘Right to Left’ to get the behavior to start on the opposite end of the text. Attempting to do the same thing today, something weird happened. Instead of just swapping which side the behavior started on, it completely reversed the behavior all together. So instead of a Behind Camera behavior drawing stuff in from the right, it took stuff OUT from the left, basically reversing the effect. Any ideas?

    This question has also been posted at the Apple Discussion forums, but it’s like tumbleweeds over there and I am in desperate need of some feedback!

    Set the Traversal to Custom and animate it from -100 to 0 – this will make the animation go backwards.
