Can I change the motion path only by editing the line in the motion path? I want to change the path by editing the line created by the motion path

enter image description here

Instead of following the white line I want my bone to follow the red one

  • you mean change the curve that is used in a Follow Path constraint? of course you can – moonboots Sep 04 '18 at 08:15
  • how can I do that? I did not use follow path constraint for each part of my bones? – Scheff Sep 04 '18 at 14:06
  • please be more specific, what motion path are you talking about? give screenshots and perhaps share your file if necessary: http://blend-exchange.giantcowfilms.com/ – moonboots Sep 04 '18 at 14:11

No, you can not interact with the Motion Path (the white dotted line with yellow keyframe indicators). It is merely a visual reference.

You can edit the motion of the object ...

  1. by setting additional keyframes.
  2. by changing the keyframe interpolation or bezier types in the dopesheet
  3. by changing the F-Curves of the animated channels in the graph editor
  4. by animating it along a path with a Follow Path Constraint

Editability of the motion path may be achieved through the addon Motion Trail Addon:

  • The add-on in the answer is broken for 2.8+. This seems like a huge omission from the program, it's a really basic function. – stib Sep 15 '20 at 06:05
