Image Going Upside Down Following A Path

Post by toshiyori »

Having an image follow a path, when the image reaches the end of one direction and turns to start following the path in the other direction the image goes upside down, then starting the other direction is rights itself again. I see in the users manual a "Fish" has a path as a solid line going in all directions, is this my problem, I should use a "Solid Line" ?

Why not just flip the image when necessary?

According to the tutorials it should follow the entire line upright. I have a tutorial from cartoon learning.com showing an image following a "Solid Line" without going upside down.

If you want the image just go back and forth, just stop it a bit before the end of the path and let it go back. I don't see any problem here.

slowtiger, you mentioned "Why Not Flip The Image When Necessary", this is beyond me. If I try to get another folder to turn the image around or flip it I cannot get the "Vector" to appear only "Image". Is there a tutorial showing this, I have searched but to no avail. As you can guess, Im new to Anime.

That's strange, it goes back and forth without flipping here.

Could you upload your project so we could have a look?
