My holiday DVDs usually include walks (hikes) and I illustrate them in various ways. The obvious and simplest is a simple image. But another is to animate the path as in the attached example.

The methods I use for that in either my video editor (Magix MEP) or image editor (Paintshop Pro) are not particularly easy.

So, although it's obviously a non-standard application (there's no text needed for one thing!) I'm wondering if there's any way that BT could do it please? IOW, smoothly fill up an irregular track, without resorting to scores of individually set key frames.

Thanks. Well, maybe I'll understand it in a month or two but right now it looks mostly incomprehensible! There's no article, just the files download. And I think it needs something extra called Bixelangelo?

The show opens as shown in the attachment, with various layers that are currently outside my know-how level, but I'll get around to trying 'reverse engineering' on them sometime.

Going back to my earlier question, are there any phased tutorials I can study so that I can learn the underlying techniques through stepped examples? Or is it a matter of just picking it up over a long perioid?

BTW, is there any significance to Layer 12 being 'indented'? Looks rather similar to when a layer is 'attached'.
