Thank you, my friend! The spotlight effect would work well here too. But, the drop shadow on a circle is about as perfect as you can get for a consistent radial falloff.

Yes and I made a tutorial that shows how I did it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gWK6hWSun5xladk

@@joe_dearman perfect. I found it last night when I watched the rest of your videos. I have a content idea for you. Could you look at more complicated videos or motion graphics created with Adobe products and try to make them in Camtasia? What Camtasia lasks is the ability to relate to content Creators outside the education/tutorial space who only record their screen. How to create great content using Camtasia is an untapped market. You have the imagination and skill to bring this content to the market. That's my two cents. Have a happy new year and I look forward to seeing more content from your channel. Onward, AW

I appreciate the suggestion. I’ll take you up on that - sounds like a fun challenge! If you see an example out there you’d like to see my try to tackle, send me a link here. I will give it a shot this week!

@@joe_dearman I'm glad you're up for the challenge. To get the biggest bang for your buck, I looked up a few search terms to find videos with high views from content creators with low subscriber counts. Here's a video with 1.5 million views by a content creator with 50k subs. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnXdhIx8gZWoo9k Let me know what you think. If it's too challenging I could find another video.

@@joe_dearmanhere's another example for you where another youtube channel has a day of the week dedicated to copying a creation or effect and presenting a "How-To" video using after affects. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4GQhJquhr6em5Y There isn't a similar content creator for Camtasia. Now, I'm not saying that Camtasia can replace After Effects or Premier Pro. But, for 85% of content Creators, Camtasia is a perfect tool for their simple projects. I'm looking forward to seeing what you try to recreate.

Thank you, AQtheGamer. I enjoy making them!

It probably has something to do with the alpha channels similar to the icon.

Thanks Carl, I’m glad you found it helpful!

Lon Naylor Great point! I would be stuck in first gear without grouping. The anchor point technique makes animations more expressive and realistic. Cheers!

@@joe_dearman Groups are awesome. I'll be REALLY happy when Groups on Windows open in tabs like on Mac. I see the 2020.0.06 update let's us add Behaviors to groups which is nice.

Lon Naylor Thanks for the kind remarks! I do these videos to inspire, so I’m happy to hear this technique has found a home in your training. I appreciate the shout out! Cheers!

@@joe_dearman Awesome thanks! Great to connect with Camtasia creators who do great work. Take care and I look forward to see more of you in your backyard. ;-)

I’ve added this to my library in Camtasia. This gives me a lot of flexibility in that I can add it to a new project anytime and can change size, color, text, etc. to meet the needs of the project. Hope that helps!

I’ve run into this too, try rotating your group 180 degrees. This effect does look like a waving flag, lots of possibilities with this technique!

I posted a video last night that shows how to get SVGs into Camtasia. Hope it helps!

Tri-State Nursing This an effect new to Camtasia 2019 on Mac and 2020 on Windows. I use it so frequently that I argue that it is worth the price of upgrade for this effect alone!
