Where is the Extend tool? - Polyloop

Jack 3D · 18th May 2007, 16:57

Hi. I'm trying to work through a tutorial in the Carrara 5 manual on motion paths and the instuctions say to select the Extend tool to place the first point of the path and a small diagram of the tool is shown. I can't find that tool anywhere. Can someone please let me know where it is? Thanks.

Hi Jack,

I don't have the manual handy but when you create a motion path, a brand new little pallet shows up that has bezier pen drawing tools. The extend tool is on that. (you have to make sure that the path is selected first or you won't see the tools)

Also, I've got a tutorial on this that you watch here: http://www.markbremmer.com/pages/TutMain.html

Go to the the second section, Using Cameras, and click on the last topic, Creating motion paths for camera movement.

Hope that helps.

Mark
