animate between two graph mapper states

Any ideas how i can animate from one graph map state to another using a single slider?

Thanks!

You need to create two Graph Mappers representing both states, then you can use the Interpolate component with a slider. You can also interpolate between more than two Graph Mappers this way.

thanks for the response. I am struggling to make this work. I am a bit confused as to what plugs in where. I have two graph mappers going into the interpolate data component but it isnt producing a transition between the two it just leaves a single number from the data list.... Any idea what i might be doing wrong? Ive attatched an image of the script.

Thanks for your help!

I forgot that Interpolate works on lists of values rather than interpolating between multiple inputs. You'll have to put a Graft component in front of it and a Path Mapper behind it to put the data structure back together again.
