When you create an Alternative Path, you must specify an end frame for the path. If you decide later that the path should reconnect at a different frame, or you chose the incorrect end point when you recorded the topic, you can change the end point of an Alternative Path. When you change the end point of the path, the other frames in the path are not affected. For example, if another frame in that path has a different Alternate Path with a different end point, that end point does not change. 

 

Changing the end point only affects the currently selected action. If the end frame in an Alternative Path has an Alternative Action, and you change the end point for one action, the Alternative Action still connects to the original end point. Two paths appear in the Topic Editor. You must select the Alternative Action and change its end point separately.

 

ProcedureTo change the end frame of an Alternative Path: 

  1. Click the final frame in the Alternative Path.
     
  2. On the Edit menu, choose Modify End Point.
     
    You can also click the Modify end point button in the Frame Properties toolpane.
     
  3. Use the black arrow to click the circle representing the frame you want to use as the new end frame of the Alternative Path.
