Thanks for taking the time to answer such a dumb question! I'm starting to get comfortable with Animator and loving it. Thanks again!

I created a simple scene to confirm and found that the point of contact stays put when the path remains where I placed it, but when saving rearranges the clips the point of contact is no longer connected to the corner I specified and scaling expands the corner away from the curve.

I couldn't consistently reproduce it, but with this example the tracks stayed put after closing and reopening the SketchUp file.

I've attached the file.

If you have any advice I'd appreciated it.

Thanks!

Thanks for the reply. I wouldn't care, but it's having an impact on the end result. With the scaling reshuffled by Animator, the second path movement starts in a slightly different location.

Thanks for your amazing work, Fredo. I'm just trying to learn how to use Animator.

I'm confused about why the clip sequencer will reposition clips after I've placed them. It seems to have some built-in logic that wants to move a clip from one track to another and I can't figure out how to override it so that I can lay them out the way I want.

In the picture I've attached, I had all the movements in one track and the scaling in another. When I saved, Animator shuffled the Scaling and Movements.

Is there a switch I can flip, or can you explain the logic behind the automatic rearranging?
