Layer order doesn't work - is it the camera?
Hi -
I am baffled and really can't find the answer anywhere.
Here's the problem. I want the star to be under the rocket. According to the layer order that is where it should be right? No matter where I move it in the project panel (Background group, text group etc) it stays in the same place. I've restarted Motion thinking maybe it glitched or something like that and that didn't help. Is it something to do with the camera, maybe?
Could someone also be so kind as to explain to me why is it when I move the star in X or Y position it acts exactly the opposite? Meaning X moves it vertically and Y moves it horizontally. Again, it must be due to the camera, right? But the camera still mystifies me. I keep working with it hoping one day I will "get it". It's happened with other things so I'm thinking one day it will click.
I decided to go back and rework this tutorial (first one I ever did) just to see if anything seems easier to me now. And if I could pick up anything I could use. It actually is easier (yay!) and I did pick up a couple new things now that I understand some concepts better...except then I came across this little snafu. I'm sure (and I'm hoping) this is one of those very easy fixes like when your computer doesn't turn on and IT asks "did you plug the computer in?" and you face palm yourself and slink out of the room...you know, that kind of easy. :)
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - Sandee
