How to UNfollow path?

Post by mmmaarten »

Hi,
I am animating a mesh over a path and am still tweaking the resolution of the mesh to do so.
So I use follow path to see if its resolution is high enough and than undo the follow path to add more 'vertices'/points to scale up the resolution.

However, I have too little undo points to go back to the state before follow path was applied.

How can we un-follow-path?

BTW Is there a way to automatically scale up the resolution of the mesh (something like what subdivision is in Blender; so add vertices inbetween other vertices to scale resolution up)?


Thanks in advance!

activate the follow path tool with the layer that is following a path active. Click anywhere away from a path.
