ZOOM issues help pls!

[kkms1]

I have been trying to do a simple zoom code of zooming into my story in 5 seconds. every time the zoom plays in the previewer, the zoom is off centered. So instead of just zooming straight into where I want, it loops around to the side of the screen AND THEN gets to where I need it to be. It is super annoying pls help!

@speechbubble is 110 143 to 100% with tail_top_left

Lemme see.

@CORA starts show_phone_happy
@pause for a beat
@zoom on 441 154 to 319% in 5
@transition fade out white in 2

My scene is already zoomed in at@zoom on 1144 358 to 123% in 0 from the beginning of the scene. If I add zoom reset before the second zoom that I want, it just looks super weird and not smooth

If you’re talking about how the zoom curves, here’s some info on how to avoid that.

@Dara.Amarie

If you’re talking about curved zooms, it’s not something that’s done on purpose.

Curves only happen when you’re zoomed in at a spot and then zoom in/out to a totally different spot with different x y and %, and there’s really nothing you can do about it.

The only times zooms go in a straight linear path is:

• when you’re zoomed out at default (100%) then zoom into any spot
• when you’re zoomed in at a spot then zoom to a spot with the same %
• when you’re zoomed in at a spot then zoom in/out to the same exact x and y coordinates but only change the %

Thank you so much! I will see if I can tweak anything and make it work!

is there anyway to make something like “&zoom reset” paired with my zoom like more smooth?
