Inheritance sends each clone to the matching clone of a source layer: clone 1 to its clone 1, and so on. Animate Blend to morph one arrangement into another.
How to use it
- Build the target arrangement on another shape or text layer.
- On this layer choose Geo Ops ▸ Effectors ▸ Inheritance.
- Pick the other layer under Source and keyframe Blend from 0 to 1.
