I have a motion path for an object. To be precise in the objects finishing
location I need to edit the end point. When I right click on the motion path
the option to 'Edit Points' is greyed out.

Any ideas ?

Thanks,

Julian
 
If the motion path has only 2 points -- that is, if it's a straight line --
you won't be able to "edit points," as there aren't really any points to
edit. You can, of course, *move* the endpoint, but you cannot add points or
otherwise "edit points."

However, if you choose a motion path that has more than 2 points (like the
moon, or the circle, or one of the stars, or what have you), you can "edit
points" on those.

Or you can draw your own motion path, which would allow you to have a
straight line and still be able to use "edit points."
