Hello

For now, I can only give general ideas
I think it’s something between the shinny effects, and the first particles’s tutorial

Here:

I think you are refering to something like this?:

One of this days I’ll do a Particle layer. :slight_smile:

Does this mean that it is impossible to do something that looks at least 50% like magic dust with the present Synfig layers?

you can use particle template created by genete, to do it:

Thank you I will read it thoroughly and try to realise the magic dust…fingers crossed… :slight_smile:
