I'm having trouble editing the trajectory in Interpolate Sub Paths. It's not working for me. None of the options work. Is there anything I can do to fix this?
Some compound paths may require reversing one sub-path direction. Using the node tool, the sub-path can be selected by clicking on a node, then use menu Path>Reverse
One issue you can also encounter, when pasting or linking a path as a trajectory is the direction of this pasted/linked path. When combining two path, the resulting path is different depending on z order of the two combined paths (see pic).
If you don't paste any path as trajectory, notice that the orientation of the trajectory generated by inkscape is different (bottom of pic).
Now, if you paste or link a path as trajectory, the result will depend on the path orientation of the pasted / linked path.
Beyond the Basics Trajectory in Interpolate Sub Paths

Hello!
I'm having trouble editing the trajectory in Interpolate Sub Paths. It's not working for me. None of the options work. Is there anything I can do to fix this?
Tks!

First pic to illustrate subpath direction issues. Path direction display can be set in Inkscape Preferences > Tools > Node Tool
The trajectory can be edited as with node tool :
