Yes - It would be nice to be able to just "Draw" a Path, placing an Object at the beginning & have the Object move-along the self-drawn Path as you can in proDAD's Heroglyph Program that I've used for many years. I've often thought why the hell can't I just do that in iClone.
The answer of course is that Heroglyph is a 2D Application.
It's take/taking me a long time in getting my head around 3D space. Take Attachments for example; They look ok in "Face-on" Camera View. Rotate the Camera; the Attachments become Detached, because their Attachment is only relative to the Parent. Maybe Einstein's Law of Relativity comes into play here;)
My "Clumsy" workaround is to Render a number of different Camera Views to AVI Files & stitch those together in my NLE Program.
As an aside; Like Darren, I've had to alter Story lines to accomodate eg; Characters disappearing & reappearing somewhere-else when a motion is applied.
