I’m back learning Blender again… I used it 2 years ago and have come back to it and working on learning more… I created a snowman for my first animation 2 years ago… and I used layers working with it, but when my computer crashed, I lost the .blend file where I created the animation… so can’t remember how I did what I did…
Right now am working with an animation… I have small rocket that flies across the sky and as it passes a particular area, a letter appears… when it is at the frame where the letter appears, do I move that letter to the 1st layer from the layer it is on? or is there a way to leave it on it’s layer and just make it appear when I reach that frame… ? I worked with a couple layers in an old animation but that was 2 years ago and can’t remember how I did it… I don’t remember if I moved my object to the other layer when I reached the frame or if I just made the layer visible at that frame and left the object on its layer…I have 16 layers
I’m thinking when I reach the frame, I need to just move the letter to the 1st layer… but am not positive because I don’t want the letter to show up until that frame… so my first 60 layers or so is just the rocket going across the sky… and then the letter appears… (I may shorten that number of frames… am playing with it right now…)
thank you in advance for answer …
