Is it possible to select all keyframes of a character at once, to shift the timing? Not just the bones, but including the vector animation within a bone group as well? That would be extremely useful. It's a pain when I need to adjust the timing and I have to dig into the vector layer to match up adj...

what?? That is awesome! I had no idea about that option in the tools menu. That will help so much! Thanks.

It would be a game changer to be able to add new shapes while animating. Sometimes, while we are working on a shot, we want to throw in a new hand pose, just for that shot on a certain movement. It's really time consuming to have to go back to frame 0 and create the shape, without being able to crea...

yes, I've tried that. Same issue

Hey Chucky, the issue is not with the masking. I've tried to disable the masking just to check, and the issue is still there. Plus, masking wouldn't make the layers go grey and the timeline to turn red. So there's something else going on that I can't figure out. Yes, the layer orders are easily fixe...

Hello, I'm having an issue with the merge skeleton script: "ae_merge_skeletons.lua" I've used it multiple times to re-use eye rigs on different characters, and it works great. Right now, I am trying to import my eye rig on a character. When I import it, everything looks fine. But when I ru...

Hey, thanks Greenlaw for the feedback. I was able to fix it in the following way. There were keyframes on frame 1, and when I deleted those, everything was fixed. Even though they were set to stepped, and even though I was trying to add keyframes way later in the timeline after other keys were set, ...

I have spent two days animating a scene with 3 characters. I opened the file today, and something is wrong with one of the characters. His layer is moving on it's own where there are no keys. When I try to move him back to the correct place, as soon as I leave that frame, he snaps back to a differen...

Victor and Greenlaw, thank you very much for the answers. That solved my problem.

Just as a heads up, it does seem to be due to the plugins on the tool shelf. I uninstalled them, and the frame by frame works.
So the question is, how to get the frame by frame to work with the plugins installed. Is there no way to customize the shelves?

Hello, I am currently unable to use a frame by frame layer, because when I create one, the timeline shrinks, and when I try to click and drag to expand it, it just completely disappears and will not come back. Maybe it is some type of crash happening with the 3rd party plugins I have installed that ...

I have an eye rig setup that I am trying to reuse for other characters to save a lot of time. I've saved out the eye rig and tried to import into another character, but it will not allow me to reparent the eye rig bones to the new character's head. Is there a way to do this? Here's a video of the pr...

Hello all, thank you for the replies. Using the reset all bone rigging worked. However, I have a follow up question. I had tried releasing points and releasing layer and points, and then retrying to flexi-bind, but it didn't work. I thought that the "release" options would sort of reset th...

Ok, this is driving me crazy. I am trying to use "use selected bone for flexi binding". It works most of the time, then randomly, I try to use it on one of my vector layers and the layer becomes completely unresponsive to the rig. It isn't effected by any of the bones, including the ones I...

I see in the edit tab, there is an undo option, but when I click it or press cntrl+z it doesn't do anything.
That is a HUGE deal for a program to not have an undo feature. It is wasting our studio tons of time repeating tasks from scratch because of mistakes that cannot be undone.
