Re did the mask the opposite way around. Not exactly a solution, but a quick fix!

For some reason, when you copy a mask shap into another layers properties, it starts at the end and works backwards…

It’s okay – I am going to do each key frame by hand!

thanks

Hi.

Okay, got the wrong way thing to be fixed.

NOW, how do you copy a mask shape, and paste it into a items anchor position, while keeping it a constant speed.

When I paste it it, it give me two key frames, first and last.

When I drag the last key frame out, to match the last key frame in the stroke – all the key frames in between dont stay the same distance apart, the are fast, then slow down, the fast again. How can I make it a constant speed?

Thank you.

That’s it.

But when I do that, it just joins the last mask point down the bottom directly with the first mask point up the top.

It’s weird. As my first mask point is at the top anyway, but for some reason, the layer follows it from the last through to the top. complete opposite to the stroke?!

Any other ideas.

Thank you!

Thanks – I have never used this sort of scripting before on expressions – I applied it to one layer – and got an error: Expression result must be of dimension 3, not 1. Error occurred at line 0.

They are all in one comp with no other layers. I assume you can apply an expression to multiple layers at once? Otherwise, I may aswell do it the other way.

Let me know!

Thank you very much

Hi,

What I do is add just a little bit of gaussian blur.

Thanks
