    I am trying to use the write on effect for a blueprint and there are a lot of corners on the drawing. I have the path drawn out for write on to use but it can’t seem to handle the corners. It looks like it has bezier keyframes where the corners are curved. I can’t figure out how to chage it so the brush can follow a corner exactly.
    thanks

    Instead of using write-on, draw a mask, then apply effect>render>stroke. Animate the stroke’s end point.

    Hey good idea! I will give that a try.

    Hey, that’s a lesson from an expert, not an idea.
