View Full Version : Animating pivot on linear curves

I'm working on a test animation and having an issue. I've built a simple cube using linear curves. I'm trying to animate the pivot & compensation to create a rotation that happens on the corners. This works fine on a standard poly cube, but when I try it with a cube made of linear curves, the cube jumps for a single frame when I key the pivot position and compensation, then jumps back and continues on the rotation.

Is there an issue with animating the pivot on linear curves?

Solved it - forgot to deactivate Compensate Pivot....
[edit]

Ok, no I haven't solved it. I can rotate up to 540 degrees and then adjusting the pivot position and compensation position actually affects the position of the child objects, even when Compensate Pivot is turned off.
