Trying to get a motion guide to work

[dulcie]

I am having trouble getting my movie clip to follow the motion guide layer. Do guide layers have problems generally or am I doing something wrong? I have the layer under the guide layer and it is indented from the guide layer so I'm sure its recognised and I have the registration point snapping to the line and I have the orient to path checked and when I use the arrow key to move the movie clip it follows the path but when I test scene it doesn't follow the path. Any suggestions.

It sounds like your motion guide is setup correctly but perhaps you have more than one symbol on the layer that's being animated? You can only have one symbol on a layer at a time if you want to animate it or else you get unpredictable results like what you may be getting. Go make sure there's only one symbol on the layer and see what happens.
