Use the old Paint node to do this if you don't need to link the vertexes to a tracker and whatnots. It works better to draw lines than the RotoPaint since it gives you tangent control for the vertexes. Something that the RotoPaint doesn't allow you to do.
Hit "x" to bring the Command (leave it in TCL) and type "Paint". Draw a line and then delete the vertexes you don't need. cheers, diogo On Wed, Aug 24, 2011 at 10:49 AM, [email protected] <[email protected]>wrote: > Randy: Yes, works fine too.
