Hmm...I actually have a few more techniques I can share. I need to add this subject to my upcoming tutorial series.

Because I never run out of tricks, here's one more... If the issue is that you don't want to dig into the rig's folder structure to find the Switch Layer, set the Layer Window's Search box to Kind Contains . Now, when you need to find the Switch layer quickly, enter 'Switch'. Moho will list all the ...

FWIW, the matched display and render example I posted above used Ctrl-R. So, maybe this is a Mac-specific issue as you suggested?

Sorry, I don't have a Mac right now and can't check that here, but hopefully, another Mac user or the Moho devs can test the file and post feedback soon.

Sorry, I meant for final-quality renders. I don't think there are any user settings for Render Preview (Ctrl-R). I believe this command defaults to whatever is built-in. The user-defined render settings I'm talking about are found in Export Animation and Moho Exporter . You can make presets there fo...

OH! Here's another Switch Layer shortcut technique. I haven't used this one in many years, but it still work in 14.1: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/6kj4311p4jgjj6cfkxxk7/CtrlAltRMB.png?rlkey=oe0kuuaui4wjawxev62mbzfbm&raw=1 Use Ctrl+Alt+RMB on the visible Switch Layer artwork in the Working Area...

You might want to check the render settings. What immediately stood out to me was the poor antialiasing quality in the rendered version of your post. The settings to check: - Enable Antialiased Edges . (I guess this one is obvious) - Enable Extra Smooth Images . This tells Moho to render the project...

I should have mentioned that Shift+Alt+RMB has a companion shortcut: Alt+RMB. This variation selects the layer directly. I use this one all the time.

Yes! There's a limitation with the official shortcut, though. To select a group that an artwork layer belongs to, just Shift+Alt+RMB on the artwork in the working area. If the art belongs to a Switch layer, this shortcut selects it. Bonus: if you're using the Switch Selection Window, the Switch laye...

Hi Nicohk92, I'm not sure why this happens on your end, but here are the results I see with your file: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/33e3dkqvo2mx7agn8dtx3/spleenDisplayVsRender.jpg?rlkey=s3k98e5c9i3x6o4jxx1qv0rqj&raw=1 On the left is what I see on my display, and on the right is the Ctrl-R rend...

Just a variation on Hayasidist's post above... I number my shots by ones, using three positions, so s001, s002, s003, etc. The shot numbering is worked out in the storyboard and animatic, and the assigned numbers rarely change after I begin animation. Still, occasionally, I find I need to add new sh...

Just a thought: Can you use the Bind Layer tool to bind the FBF to an unparented bone? If it needs to move with the rig, use Bind Layer to bind the FBF to the appropriate bone in the skeleton.

Anything bound using the Bind Layer tool will be excluded from being affected by other bones.

Hi Borchc,

Wow! Lucky coincidence! I literally came back to this topic five minutes ago to watch the original video to see if I could reverse-engineer your setup, and in that time you posted the file!

Thank you very much for sharing your file and tutorial video. I'll be studying this today.

I agree with Alejandro: Wacom is the best, but you do pay a high price for it. A few years ago, I bought a 13-inch XP Pen display tablet and a similar Huion display tablet, each to use with the laptop I had at the time. Back then, I wanted a display tablet I could attach to the laptop without a sepa...

This might sound like a cop-out answer, but there are so many ways to handle the mouth, and the best method depends on the character design and how it will be animated. I suggest experimenting and finding what works best for your situation. For me, I usually place the mouth in a Switch Layer and use...

It depends on how complex you want to get. For some characters, going from 3/4 to 3/4 can be accomplished in a Smart Bone action. A common way is to parent the parts of the face to a bone and slide the bone from side to side. If you're working with Moho's vector layers, the Smart Bone Action can smo...
