Help!

Post by Tyran Rex »

I need help with Anime Studio Pro 9.5.

Okay, let's say I add an image at frame 1, then at Frame 24, I move it somewhere. Then, suddenly, in Frames 2-23, the image moves by itself! Is it possible to stop or disable this?

Also, if I was to move the camera or zoom in in Frame 24, the same thing would happen. Help me please!

This is actually the exact way the software is supposed to work. Put something somewhere, move it somewhere down the line, the software does all the in between movement (also called "tweeing") for you. This is its best feature: you tell it where to start and stop, it does the rest for you.

The prevent this from happening and create sudden movements, you can either right click on the keyframe on frame 1 and set it's interpolation to "Step," or you can go to frame 23 and add another keyframe without actually moving anything.

You have to define 2 positions for each movement: one where you want it to start, and one where you want it to end. If you only define the end position, the software assumes you want a movement starting from your last keyframe, which, in your case, is frame #0.
