I'm still stumbling around the tutorials, so this is not an important project. I've been doing a particular experiment that will hopefully help me continue an existing one, from jasc animation shop, in A S Pro. (Don't laugh!)

I have a simple sky on a layer, ground on another, with two sets of leaves and tree trunks gathered in two group layers above that. I've got the very long scene scrolling beautifully to frame 2800, with the sky moving more slowly. I have tried all sorts of ways to get the trees moving past naturally, and have resorted to setting up the positions by eye. I moved the whole background lot of trees by selecting their group and putting them where I wanted them to be at frame 420; namely, just disappeared from view. when I played what I'd got, the trunks behave themselves, but my leaves get left behind slightly!
I haven't even touched the foreground trees yet, because I can guess what's going to happen!
What the heck have I done wrong NOW? I thought that by selecting the group they would stay stuck together??
Yes, I've tried the camera tracking method first. All my sizes went wrong. Yes, I know I should probably use a bone somewhere, but I'm scared to make the situation worse! And, it will take me days to research where to put it.
Should I abandon this thing for a few years?
