Just to add, I just upgraded to 10.4.10, and some weird display (or rather non-display) shenanigens has now dissappeared on my MacBookPro Core2. Suddenly a whole raft of stuff in motion suddenly makes sense again, and I can now see my particles, whereas before I couldn’t.

Thanks again for your help, specialcase.

Thankyou, that’s perfect. That was frustrating the hell out of me.
Sometimes the ‘automatic’ side of Motion I find limiting, not able to get ‘under the bonnet’ enough, but dipping back into Shake where I feel totally at home after losing hours trying to solve my problem in Motion was a welcome relief.

Ah, the joys of noodles…

Just to be clearer, I want to start with a blank page, and end with a finished drawing, drawn in a single stroke. This stroke is just a plain red ink or similar, nothing fancy.

The stroke is dictated by the track, drawing a diagram in the air.

I can’t make motion be this simple, please help.
