Spline distortions

Support Synfig related help

Hi eb,
I created this animation with Synfig:
https://mapforfuture.world/animap/animation.mp4

In some sections of the animated line it seems that slight distortions of the line can be seen at the points where the line advances.

In reality they are barely noticeable.
I wonder if there is a way to prevent such small distortions from occurring in the right end of the advancing line.

I followed this video:
Synfig for beginners: 62 - Write On Text

Thanks to @Khemardi for the tutorial.

In Khemardi’s video the Cusp After Flat is used.
I used Cusp After Rounded.

Thank you :slight_smile:

Not an expert, but I think the “distortions” are caused by tiny turns in the path? I think if you delete a few unnecessary nodes and smooth it out a bit, they could disappear.

(Btw imo it’s also perfectly usable as-is, looks fine to me)
