Multiple picture morph question

I created a morph of my child growing up - all his grade school pictures. I added all the dots, adjusted them all on each of the other 18 pictures, and rendered with no problems. Then I realized I started from his current age and went down to his baby picture, but what I really wanted was to start at his baby picture and grow up to his current age. How can I move the pictures around and keep the dots lined up with the appropriate pictures. Or do I have to start over from scratch? OMG it took me so long to do this already. Please tell me there is an easy way to fix this. I know about the option in the timeline where you can choose to render in forward, reverse, or both ways. Well, I wanted to render it both ways but start when he was a baby. Any ideas? :?:

What you can do is add more morphs to your timeline with the same pictures in the correct order, all linked morphs including tied to the old pictures, while leaving the old pictures still there. Then you can open the old picture windows and use the Select Dot tool, press Ctrl+A, Ctrl+C (select all, copy), open the new picture window in the correct order, and press Ctrl+V to paste the dot locations. Once you do this for all of the pictures, you can start right-clicking the pictures in the timeline window which are in the wrong order and deleting them.

Thanks so much! That worked great. It still took some time but not as much as it would have been to redo all the dots. Thanks again. :lol:
