Can I set the transform arrows to a certain angle?

PostTue Sep 26, 2023 9:57 pm

I want to animate my object on a certain angle, so I’m thinking, I’d like to rotate my transform arrows to a certain angle so I can transform my object in a straight line on a certain angle. Can I do this?

Might look at the Vector Result or Offset modifiers.

If you mean you want the angle of your object to be influenced by the direction that the line is heading then simply keyframe your points, right click on Angle, choose Connect To - Path - Heading.

Edit I'll try again this time with all the nodes selected.

Code: Select all
