Selecting Motion Paths already established
Am I missing something? I have 2 motion paths for one object moving one way on motion path 1 and the other way for motion path 2.
I want to change to the timing of each independently but since they are superimposed over each other graphically, I don't see any easy way that I can see to select each one. Why isn't there a drop down available in the motion path names to do this easily?

Hi Bill,
Thanks for reaching out and sharing what you are experiencing.
If you would share this slide here, we'd be happy to take a look. You can share the .story file publicly here, or send it to me privately by uploading it here. I'll delete it when I'm done troubleshooting.
Thanks for the response. However, I respectfully disagree with your assessment. I selected a trigger in the list referencing a motion path and the only item to get selected in the slide (or layer) is the object itself. Leaving the object selected, and selecting each tab at the top of the window showed that on the Animations tab showed Motion Paths, but it shows all motion paths with no avenue for selecting the individual one. thank You. I appreciate your input. It just appears it is a shortcoming of the program features.
Unfortunately you're not missing anything, that's just a frustrating way that it works right now. If you have triggers associated with the motion paths, selecting the trigger will select the corresponding motion path. Otherwise, you may have to move the top path up or down while you work on them, and move it back when done.
