Rotate props over time?

Post by combia1 » Wed May 30, 2012 1:39 pm

So I know how to rotate props, and I know how to move/animate props over time, but how can I do both?

I have several props that are long and flat. And they move/pivot at various points during the show. Imagine a pencil on your desk that you can rotate. These props rotate to create paths/channels that will open, close, change the paths that marchers can take. I need a way to keep track what way the props are "facing" as I write the drill.

Any ideas?

You are not able to rotate props during the drill in 3D as of yet. That feature has been added and will be available in version 7 when it is released.

AWESOME!

My workaround was to add performers, chart them really close together, and then chart them like drill to represent my props.
