    Key Tips

    How to add my custom head?

    Answer:

    Make sure the name of the head layer starts with the word “head” (case insensitive).

    Select both the head layer and the line layer, and run the script.

    Tip1

    How can I completely remove Head to Line from a layer?

    Answer:

    Just click the delete button, named “del”.

    Tip2

    How can I make a head with no line?

    Answer:

    Just turn off the visibility of the shape (which is the line).

    Tip3

    Can I apply Head to Line Script to shapes drawn with Rectangle Tool, Ellipse Tool, or ...?

    Answer:

    Yes, but you need to convert the shape path to bezier path by right clicking on the shape path (here, Rectangle Path 1) and select “Convert to Bezier Path”.

    Tip4

    Why are the start and end keyframes for trim path set at 0.1% and 99.9% instead of 0% and 100% ?

    Answer:

    The correct direction of the head often cannot be calculated at the beginning (0%) or the end (100%) of the path.
