Two pix. Before(top): all objects are present. After(bottom): Some vanish. What is the function of the small vertical line between two positions of the timeline? The objects vanish at that exact point, every time I run the animation. I spoke a couple of days ago with Mike, who helped me very much with this project.

Thanks Luis,
These were not photos, they were screenshots. I am enclosing another one to show the beginning. This is a complex project with audio and video combined, and I am simply trying to find out the function of the vertical line I mentioned, and whether it can be moved so that the animation continues.
This is most of the screen. All I need to know is what the little vertical line is all about, as it removes some images when the timeline crosses it. Nothing more to show you, sorry. I tried to send a video clip but it didn't go. You just have to imagine the timeline moving as the objects move along the line in time with the audio track, Need a video?, until some vanish.
Please show the rest of the timeline - if an object "disappears", maybe it is just because its end point was reached.
We can only see what appears to be an audio file.
Also: you don't need to take a photo of your screen with your phone.
Press Command-Shift-4 and drag to select an area. The screenshot is saved to your Desktop by default.
Your 5-sided Star actually *ends* at the playhead position which is approximately the same position as the vertical line you've been asking about.
To make the 5-sided Star "live" for the entire duration of your project, set the playhead at the end marker and type the 'o' key (Out).
For the other graphics that "vanish", do the same.
Sorry, they were indeed photos, but they show what was needed.
We still need to see the other items in the timeline. You are only showing an audio file.
The small line is not visible in what I just sent, but it is there in the previous screenshot I sent.
Thanks,
Tad
