Hi!
I'm trying to make a line that is marching ants from point a to point b but no matter what I do to the offset it looks as though the dotted line grows from each individual dot. See video below and notice the first few dots as it moves. I really want just a smooth constant and consistant movement. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It would probably make sense to create the line the old-fashioned way using text on a path and then use the options there. Shape layer dashes behave a bit odd on open shapes.

If you set your dash and gap to the stroke width and animate the offset, the problem should resolve itself. If you want round caps, set the dash to zero and the Gap to the stroke width * 2. This is very easy to do with expressions.
