Hi Marcia,

Thanks for attaching your source file. I can see where the motion paths are being a challenge.

I've attached an updated .story file along with a short screencast on how I'd approach a similar project.

Storyline lets you find the size and position of a motion which really helps ensure both the entrance and exit paths are correct.

Please check out the source file and screencast to see if this helps.

Hi David

Thank you so much for taking the time to do this. This does help - at least I will be able to make sure that there is no jitter on my project now.

I do still think that there is a need for some development on the way motion paths work in Storyline for future releases. For example - being able to view motion paths on a timeline of sorts would be really helpful! That way it is super easy to select the motion path you are looking for (since you can give them unique names). 

Thanks again for the help - the screencast was very informative!

Best regards

Marcia

    Yes, thank you , a visible motion path (with editing curve points) would be most helpful.
