I dont know what is meant by moving the reflection control object as I can only set a custom reflection point by clicking and see no ball. Nor can I see the additional reflection controls unless you are talking just about the glass reflective controls.
Nor do I understand what is meant by the basic or advanced animation setting as advanced only shows me layers ?[edit]
One more reason for a tute (confusion) After reading this post I assumed the reflection control had to be used for each clip. hahaha me!
I deleted it fom the clips and added it only to the main movie and set it to show reflections of all objects and from camera position, now it works as i expected it to witout having to set any points or anything.
Sounds like you are using the Free version 1. So reflection control is different now in v2 which billet323 is referring to.
re advanced animation, that's in the Ultimate edition or as a plug-in for version 2 so you won't see anything other than the basic animation tool (object moving) for video or video clips.
There is other discussions and some examples showing how to use the Relfection Control for v1, please search the forum if you still need to.
The default reflection works fine for a lot of cases, the Reflection Control (per clip) is to fine tune for local reflections etc so if it's not needed then its not needed to be added to a clip.
