Hi I am using MOHO 12 Pro,

I am trying to making blinking eyes using switch layers and I am running into a problem. Please help below is what I did -

1. I created 3 pictures ( EYE FULLY OPEN, EYE 1/2 way closed , EYE FULLY CLOSED), I guess we could call the images A, B and C respectively for ease.
2. I put the 3 vector images in a SWITCH layer called BLINK
3. Then I go to the timeline
4. Go to frame 1 and I make A the active child
5. Go to frame 5 and make B the active child
6. Go to frame 8 and make C the active child.
7. I play the animation from the start and only my LAST active child shows (i.e. C)

I swear I saw someone do the same exact thing in thus video below (58 seconds into it)

I am applying the same concept except with eyes. Why is his one changing on the time line and mines isn't. After I make something the active child do I need to PRESS something after?

Thanks again.

Exactly how do you "make the active child"? Does this create a key?

I do this:
- select switch layer
- in timeline, right-click and choose A, B or C
- this creates a key
- go next frame, repeat.

If a child layer is selected, that will be the only one that shows. As long as you have switch layer keyframes, selecting the switch layer will show the animation.

Thanks guys ! it worked ! muchas gracias !

De nada.
