Motion Paths

Hi All,
How can I make a particle Producer follow a path I've created with the mask tool? Or have I gone about this in completely the wrong way?
Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers, Krumo

In your timeline, highlight mask shape and copy it. The mask can then be pasted to your particle generator by highlighting the x,y position and pasting.

If you're using Particle Playground, the position is found under the Cannon twirl down. If you have the Particular plugin, you can find the position under the Emitter twirl down.

Good Luck. Hope this helps.

Bob
