Why do Bezier-Handles move, if i havent even animated them?

Post by DrNibbert »

Hello everyone!

I noiiced a behavior of Moho i'm not shure it it was always there or if i changed some settings to behave like this. :o

When i move a point of a Vektor-Shape, the Bezier-Handels of the points next to it move as well.
When i turn "Fixed Bezier Handles"-Option on, it seems to fix it - but when i record a point-animation, the Bezier-Handels still move very weird even though i didn't even touch the Handles of these points.

I recorded a video of the Problem, notice how the upper and lower Bezier-Handels wobble around, even if i didn't record bezier-Keyframes for them, and i had "Fixed Bezier Handels" turned on.

What can i do to fix this / keep the surrounding Bezier-Handles locked?

Thanks for your support!

You probably want to use Legacy Curves, on the Vectors tab of the layer settings.

The newer curve description often produces smoother, "prettier" shape morphing, but sometimes the legacy curve description is more "flexible".

Thanks! i really like this legacy-behaviour, it's much more predictable :-)

But there's no way to completely lock the beziers?
