Movement Button

This command is available only when the selection contains at least one pair of points. (You must have selected an even number of points.)

It creates a button that moves the first point of each selected pair toward the second. You can select as many pairs of points as you want; the first point of each pair (the moving point) always moves toward the second (the destination point).

After creating a Movement button, you may want to hide the destination points so only the moving points are visible.

When you create a Movement button, the Move panel of the Properties dialog box appears, allowing you to set the speed and characteristics of the motion.

Click the button once to start the movement; the button remains pressed until all moving points reach their destinations. You can click the button a second time, while the button is still pressed, to stop the movement.
