Moho Animation Forum

After watching the AS 11 webinar with the new vector brushes, I was really stoked and thought how amazing the "hairy" brush looked as it was being used. It has such smooth and amazing movement as it presents across the workspace, but that isn't animated, it's just being utilized. So I tried "animating" the stroke in several different ways, for example, starting on frame 1 and drawing out to frame 72 as the timeline is running, but what happens is simply the stroke remains invisible until it suddenly pops up on frame 72, or whatever frame I complete the stroke on, it doesn't animate.

I'm thinking there has to be a way for the development and progression of movement of the stroke to be animated, but either I'm having a brain freeze, or just too thoughtless to figure it out. I have "enable drawing tool only on frame 0" unchecked, so that's not the issue, so basically I'm stumped.

Any guidance is always appreciated.

Have you tried stroke exposure?

Thanks Synthsin75,

I just tried it and it's pretty close, I combined it with increasing the stroke value for the final frame so it's not a static exposure fill as it animates, this gives it a little more "life", but still not quite the elegant look as the original stroke creation, but I think it'll do as a close 2nd. Thanks for the pointer.
