I was attempting to do some wire removal using scratch removal tool in paint effect. I was hoping to use a small brush and paint over some mono filament that is dancing around and catching the light some times. I thought I could use scratch removal set to a 1 frame offset and just brush over the filament on each frame but when I draw the first brush stroke I end up with that brush stroke on every frame. If I go to another frame and delete the brush stroke it's gone on the first frame etc.... I recall dust busting just going to a frame and tapping on the dust spot and then moving to the next frame but maybe that was just using the scratch removal macro which is only two frames long.
I ended up using BCC 8 wire removal and it's fine but am I crazy about scratch removal? If you set up a long scratch removal paint effect is there a way to put in a fresh brush stroke on every frame. I recall that the fluid motion effect editor works that way in that drawing a brush stroke on one frame doesn't put it on every frame. You had to paint the fluid motion effect shape on every frame on to itself IIRC. I remember being confused in the fluid motion effects editor because I wanted to animate a shape in the same manner I would a license blur in paint effect but it didn't work that way.
Is there something in Avid that I'm missing in Paint Effect or some other standard effect?
