hey there i have a question. how do you make your background panning (ex: from zone 1 to zone 3 in specific amount of time) and then have a dialogue also playing while the background is still panning? I know you can’t use command @pan to zone [__] is there any other command?

Hey @Durrr !
If you preview your story on episode (on computer), it will come up with some boxes on the side of the preview. If you press ‘directing help,’ and then press ‘spot helper,’ you can press ‘change char’ until the character that you want to move is selected (they have a box around them). Then, you have to make sure on the right of the preview, it says ‘scale,’ and then you can click (with your mouse) down on the character and move them to any point on the scene. To change how big the character is, press on scale until it changes to move, then you can drag up and down to change the size of the character.

I hope this helps! :slight_smile:

Hey, @Episode_mine :smiley:
I have previously wrote how to do this to another person, so I will copy and paste my reply. Hope this helps.
