    @sebmacfly I think this is only possible with the particle behavior, don't know exactly but i think there is a template for this :)

    I have the DBA template, i confirm that particles is used.. but not with lines, only points... That's not a sword effect :)

    hehe :) yes, points aren't a really good sword effect.
    I think this sword effect with lines is only possible with much of programming. Don't know..think someone other who knows more about GS can answer that :D

    type: drawer … in GS New templates searchFilter
    this will bring up ORBZ drawer (which is probably the basis for the FruitNinjas)

    reWork ORBZ's drawer
    --using image NOT line
    --using one spawn not multiples

    (had used for a straightLine drawEFX)

    my do demo: http://www.mediafire.com/?9e4qrv4dm2046mn

    big hug and thanx to @ORBZ

    @MotherHoose

    I tryed the demo but didn't work for a fruit nonja game, when you slice fast, no spawn...
    I have to find a way to always display a sword trace

    Thanks anyway ;)

    alas, that is why there is the After Timer …
    needs to establish endpoint before it is visible

    you could try on the segmentActor taking the changeAttribute Color.alpha
    out of the rule … to speed things up a little

    but, I don't like how that looks … when drag is small

    ???
    think that maybe laying in transparent dots
    then spawning the sword image orientated to the segment's parameters … might work?
    ???

    @sebmacfly … gotta figure this one out … love the sword looks!

    i was able to do it in a template i sell. but i have it set up for click rather then slice.
    ill try and take some time tonight and convert it to a swipe and upload it for everyone.
