Hello all, need a little help or direction on how to animate a spline. The Blue spline is extracted from a shape edge and this is the final shape of the spline. I need to get the Blue spline straightened out like the Red spline at the start and then animate to the Blue spline shape. The yellow vertex needs to stay in place.
Things I have tried
1. Bend modifier but I cannot get the final Blue shape exactly
2. Animating just the verticies individually but it does not look like correct and not like an animated Bend
3. Spline Morphs but the final shape move out and the yellow vertice is not in the same location
I am trying to animate a fold over by animating the spline and then applying a Loft along the shape edge to make appear to wrap over.
Any ideas or directions to point me in?
