Moho Forum

I want to have a series of arrows moving along a certain path. I know there's probably a way I can make just one arrow, set it on its way, and then tell Moho to do a series of them right behind. Or would it be easier to just duplicate the first arrow layer and slide all the animation over a few frames for each subsequent one?

For continuous arrows, the first option. For a small number of arrows then stop, maybe the second option.

First option:
Arrow, facing up, on one layer.
Vector path on another layer.

Use Set Origin tool to set part of arrow that you want to follow the path (e.g. center of arrow head).
With arrow layer selected, click Follow Path tool and click on start of path.
Change to end frame in timeline (time to traverse path) and click on end of path.

Double-click arrow layer (or Layer Settings button) and select option for Rotate to follow path.

Test in timeline, then back to frame 0.
Arrow layer, in timeline change first Following Path keyframe to linear interpolation.

New particle layer, drag arrow into it.

Double-click particle layer (or Layer Settings button), Particles tab, everything at 0 except particle lifetime and number of real/preview particles, direction at 90 degrees (straight up), evenly spaced.

Tweak to suit.
