      I've been playing with FredoSix Animator, and it is great!!!!!! It handles nearly everything.

      I'm running into a problem, although I've found a workaround. I am just wondering if there is a better solution I am missing.

      The main goal is to animate multiple boxes moving along the same conveyor path.

      If I select one box, and animate it along the path, it works as expected, perfect.
      One Object Along Path

      If I select multiple boxes, and animate it along the path, the origin of the 1st box acts as the pivot for the rest of the boxes, sending my boxes far off the path.
      Multiple Objects Grouped

      My workaround is to individually select and animate each box. However, if I select the same path, it's offset, so it requires an additional movement to align it to the same path (simply moving forward to touch the path).
      Problem

      I'm doing this manually, as I haven't found a copy and paste function within Animator that makes sense for this. This works, but my ultimate goal is to do this in a full sized warehouse which may have 50-100 boxes moving.

      Is there a better way that anyone knows?
