Re: Frame 0 and the Sequencer

Thanks for this info... I too was wondering which image hosting is the most practical for this forum's purpose. You suggest Imgur... I think i still have an old account there. At the moment, it looks like Dropbox is back to allowing image sharing on public pages. I'm hoping this was an error on the...

Re: can't get rid of Image Texture handles (on strokes)

Here's a screenshot of the situation. New strokes on that layer will also "think" they have textures in them and display the handle.

can't get rid of Image Texture handles (on strokes)

Something quite strange here... I added an image texture to a fill (I used the Blob Brush to create the area). That worked fine. But now I'm getting the little "handles" of the Image Texture on strokes which I drew on a different layer (freehand (F) tool, no brushes). There is no texture i...

Re: Frame 0 and the Sequencer

More info regarding the Dropbox issue: Apparently, Dropbox has dropped support for public image hosting. This sucks, but at least they're allowing me to keep all my old image shares active, so my older Moho forums posts should still display my Dropbox images. To fix the image above, I went back to ...

Re: Frame 0 and the Sequencer

Not easy to explain.... so, In my experience, any layer content (animated or not) remains visible (and renders) from frame 0 to any frame set as Start. If I draw a circle and move the layer's Start Time to frame 48, I'll be seeing that circle from 0 to 48 (which is why I move the content out of the...

Re: Frame 0 and the Sequencer

If I'm not mistaken, this still means one needs to move the layer's Start Time back and forth every time a change is made to the rig or the layer content. That's what the Toggle Frame 0 button is for. It switches between your current animation frame and frame 0. Click it once to go to 0, and when y...

Re: Frame 0 and the Sequencer

The thing I don't understand is if I start animating on frame 48 I'll get a "hanging" rig from frame 0 to 48. If it's a cycle, I'll see the rig stand still from 0 to 47 and pick up motion at 48. So I still need to move it out of the way by means of moving the layer from 0 to 47. I would c...

Re: Frame 0 and the Sequencer

I agree with Hoptoad. It's best to offset the start frame so you can see your 'sub-zero' animation. I suggest starting the animation at frame 101, though. This makes it easier to count frames and to sync the frames to an animatic and edit. Not only is this good for working with Sequencer, but it's ...

Re: Frame 0 and the Sequencer

I don't like moving things backward with the sequencer either. This is what I do. At some point I'll have the various animated animated elements doing their thing in the workspace, let's say on frame 48. Once that has been taken care of, I make the animation start on frame 48. The thing I don't und...

Frame 0 and the Sequencer

One thing that's always mystified me about Moho is how the Sequencer works. Mainly, why, it leaves frame 0 visible when moving a layer forward (to make it start play at a different frame). When I use the sequencer to move a layer's Start Time forward, I always find having to deal with a "frozen...

Re: How can I "release" a Frame by frame layer?

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. Very good th...

How can I "release" a Frame by frame layer?

I have a very simple rig, a bone layer with just three vector layers. I added a Frame by frame layer to the rig (mouth positions) and drew the first frame. But the FbF layer floats around, evidently influenced by one or more bones of the rig. I am used to this behaviour with simple vector layers, an...

Re: Create cycles without the keyframing box popping up?

Yes, they are docked to the timeline, but when you choose "cycle" from the drop-down menu on the timeline, it will still open the options box. Which to me is counterintuitive because it implies one is going to tweak every cycle. Except for cycles I need to start from a specific frame or c...
