Guys thanks again for all your help. Now I am trying to create an explosion with a shatter effect. Problem is when I apply the shatter effect to my Shape I created, it assumes I want the explosion to occur as soon as the video starts to play. Actually I would like the explosion to occur a little later in the video, maybe about 25 frames into the video. I can not find a setting to key frame the start of the explosion. Is there a key frame for this and I am not seeing it? I even tried moving the shape out in the timeline so it does not appear until about the 25 frame, but this does not work either.
Thanks again
Let me know
