MOHO 14 Freehand tool sluggish as strokes are added (when brush visualisation is active)

I prefer drawing than modelling, so I reeeeeally appreciate the MOHO 14 improvements on the Freehand tool. It's smooth and does very little to none of that annoying post-stroke adjustment it used to have. Many thanks to the team for this much needed step towards a more "manual" feeling MOH...

Re: Onion Skinning through layers in Switch Layers

Another workaround I just tried is to create a Frame-by-frame group, create my drawings within that by using the + add frame button, and then drag the layers into a new group which I then convert to Switch. That isn't a workaround - it is the Ultimate solution. No need to convert it to a switch lay...

Re: Onion Skinning through layers in Switch Layers

So you can do this with Onion Skinning. Set Onion Skin content: .. On Frame 1 : Make Switch layer A active Enable onion Skin and Set your Onion Skin Frame to be Frame 1 On Frame 0, select Switch layer B - and you should see Frame 1 content Onion Skinned (as below - green is onion) https://i.ibb.co/...

Re: Onion Skinning through layers in Switch Layers

There are two ways to deal with this: a manual method and a script method. 1. The manual switch viewing method: What I do is I create an empty group layer above the Switch layer and simply drag all the drawings into this group. Now all the layers are visible. When I'm done editing or adding layers,...

Onion Skinning through layers in Switch Layers

Is there a straightforward way to view layers other than the active one in Switch Layer groups? The obvious problem arises when I'm trying to draw variants of parts of a character. Banal example, different hand positions. Of course, I can freehand draw or build the new hand without necessarily needi...

Re: Perspective for folders

"a truer prespective" sounds ... odd. The thing with perspective is that it's a distortion of the projected image of things which follows some (simple) rules. First rule: everything in an image seen through the same lens is sharing the same perspective. In constructing perspective of diff...

Re: Perspective for folders

Sorry, where I wrote Perspective I mean Rotate Layer tool, which can sort of be used like a perspective tool and it works on groups as well as other layers. I sometimes use this to force a low camera perspective on characters. As noted by GGoblin, the tool that's actually called Perspective, found ...

Thanks, I'll try this solution!

Re: Perspective for folders

Hi Reindeer, what do you mean by 'perspective tool' ? There is a Perspective Points tool, that will only work on points inside vector layers. Then there is Shear Layer and Rotate Layer XY tools which will work on layers including vector layers and image layers. These also work fine on group layers ...

Perspective for folders

As far as I can tell I can use the Perspective tool only on vector layers and image layers.
If I want to distort more layers at once by putting them into a folder layer, I can only rotate the folder without prospective distortion. Am I correct or am I missing some hidden option?

Re: Layer order not updating in referenced layers

Just a warning and some tips for using reference projects... Be careful about putting animation on the timeline for master projects you intend to reference in other projects. If you change the animation in the master later one, you risk wiping out any different animation you may have previously cre...

Re: Layer order not updating in referenced layers

Do you have keyframes? It won't update if keyframes for the layer order change don't exist. You might need to make a 'trigger' keyframe in both projects on an animation frame before the reference will pick up on the layer order change. If this is meant to be an animation change as opposed to a rig ...

Layer order not updating in referenced layers

I am using a character model by importing him as a reference layer into a scene file. When I work on the original model and save the file, the reference layer updates fine except for the order of layers. In this case, I changed the character's necktie color and moved the layer upwards (so it would f...

Re: Touch scroll for timeline

Yes, what I have in mind is what @Lukas describes. On other timeline-based software (and on a MacBook Pro) a two finger swipe on the trackpad makes the timeline glide very smoothly and - above all - proportionally to the swipe speed. What I do now on Moho is "push" the timeline header to t...

Re: Touch scroll for timeline

If I understand the functionality you're describing correctly, you can also hold down the middle mouse button and drag around the timeline (similar to how you can navigate around the workspace). My Wacom doesn't have touch functionality, so, I'm not familiar with how it interacts with the timeline,...
