How to move self made drawing svg, not only outlines

  • Hi,

    I want a self made svg illustration of a car (black outlines, orange filling made in Illustrator) first to be drawn and then to move from left to right on the canvas.

    But when I use the morph tool, during the moving only thin outlines of my drawing are shown (when I use the image without the illustrator path), or the thick Illustrator path is shown in black (when I use the Illustrator image with the path). When the car "is arrived", it changes back to the original drawing.

    --> How can I move the drawing as it is? 

    thanks a lot for help.

  • 1) you cannot morph a drawing like that with the color intact.

    2) if the car is the only thing on the screen, and you want the car to move to the right:
    just add the next element,
    move the camera to the left and then
    use "set camera" for the next element


    3) instead of drawing the car, use MOVE-IN with no hand to move the car onto the canvas as if it is being driven onto the canvas

  • thanks a lot, Mike! I've thought of this, but in the animation I need to move a car over an other illustration (of the continent of Africa), so it's a pitty this is not possible in the programme. I am very surprised though, cause this seems like a basic feature and much more needed then a morph tool or move in-tool... I've put a request at "Ideas and feature requests". Hope they make it happen :-)
