Verticies counter?

kellz5460 · Post by **kellz5460** » Thu Jan 13, 2011 1:56 pm

Is there somewhere I can find out how many verticies a particular shape has?

I'm looking at this in regards to interpolating switch layers and to my understanding- to make a smooth transition both switch layers need to have the same amount of verticies

Does anybody know?

I can't find the 7feet HowManyPoints script but the Lost Layer Tool has a point and shape counter included and does TONS more than just count.

There is a version for AS6 and for AS7.

Good Luck!

That's a little way short of the whole truth -- the two layers need to have the same vertices, just moved around.

The easiest and most successful way for interpolating switch layers is to just duplicate one layer, then drag the points around.

If you don't want to make lip synch, it would be better to use Blend Morph instead of multiple layers on a switch. It's far more flexible and keeps things clean.

thanks.

maybe i'll just do motion tweens for what I'm doing then
