I was playing with the track motion and what I wanted to do was suddenly squash the event to half it's height at the top of the screen and place another track (also squashed) to the bottom half of the screen.

When I add Keyframe position for each of these, say, five seconds in the event can be seen actually being squashed. This isn't the effect I would like as I would prefer to make it suddenly appear squashed.

Is there a way to do this without having to resort to cutting the event first at where I wish the effect to take place.

Cheers
