Splitting and joining motion paths

Sometimes you will want the motion to jump to another location on the photo using a cross dissolve transition, rather than smooth motion. To accomplish this (and the reverse) you can split and join motion paths.

To split motion over a photo into two separate motions

  1. Select a key frame at which motion stops (see Selecting key frames).

  2. Choose Edit → Split Path.

You will now have two separate photo entries in your document (even though they will be the same photo).

To join motions over the same photo into a single motion

  1. Select either the transition between the two photos (see Selecting transitions), the last and first key frames of the two photos (see Selecting key frames), or the last and first motion paths of the two photos (see Selecting motion paths).

  2. Choose Edit → Join Path.

The two separate motions on the common photo will now be a single motion over that photo.
