The blue square is the edge of the camera's frame. If you want to change its size in the editor window, you can use the Zoom tool at the Workspace tools, or the mouse's wheel, if you have. In the final material you will see only the parts inside of the blue square. This is independent from the size ...

1. Yes. 2. All systems has a folder where Moho installed, on Windows typically in the 'C:\Program Files\Moho'. In this folder there's a 'scripts' folder, and in the 'scripts' folder there are 'tool' and 'utility'. So download the file from http://www.firkafilm.com/moho/ , unzip them (With XP, you ca...

It is a good idea. Perhaps if you stick small visible control points on you (little balls, papers, LEDs...), you can trace the motion very precisely. Just place the bone ends always to the control points...

I have an idea about a still vector image format, matching to Moho's internal data hierarchy (points, curves, shapes), easily loadable from lua and easily editable by hand and by other programs. In the current version of Moho, I can't put the image vectorising directly inside, so I want to write a s...

Make a copy of a short .lua file in the scripts/tool folder of your Moho directory, changing the lm_ beginning of the filename to your favourite two letters (try to choose a unique letter pair, hv_, sf_, fa_, cc_, etc. are already used by others) . You can use these letters to identify all of your s...

I don't know what is LM's strategy about the script programming. I think it is a good way to force the users to program if LM keeps the old tools. It is great to give many examples for the beginners - the original tool set itself. And there is a more-or-less usable scripting manual as well. The idea...

It is possible to create additional dialog windows and keep them open while you are using any other functions of Moho. It is also possible to load and run external lua scripts from a lua script. The problem is, if I create such a window, it has no access to the actual edited scene (the "moho&qu...

In a group layer, you can see all of its contents together in the scene. The group is useful if you want to make the same thing with its contents (ie. move them together, masking etc.) The switch layer is different, you can switch between its contents and you can see only one of them at a time. On t...

For our studio, most of the jobs are coming through personal relations and satisfied clients. These relations are working everywhere in the market, so I have very bad experience with the incoming "call for offer" style requests. But if you have enough extra energy, you can browse the www.a...

Thank you for the many expressions of thanks, it touched me so - and inspiring to continue.... I made all of these for free. We have an animation studio here and we are using my own programs to scan, paint, render etc. Moho is only a part of the system. We have well proved conventions and I want to ...

I thought only to make a menu script to duplicate a layer with a different naming convention. It has no relations to the layer scripts at all. The LM's default duplication takes the layer name, increases its number if it has, or adds " 2" to the end of the name. It is not so sophisticated ...

The Translate Points tool works as you described. But you must click exactly on the point, together with the SHIFT key. If you click on the line, outside of the points, all points are selected. The LM's original point selection requires too precise clicking, so maybe I will replace it with a "c...

A short description added, see http://www.firkafilm.com/moho/tools.html . My tools have blue icons, so you can see which belongs to me and which belongs to LM. You can install my tools one-by-one, but there are cross-references between the LM's tools, so you cannot remove them, but you can try to mo...

When I was a beginner, I had also such problems. I made the replacement of some tools in the lua script language. It's a great possibility in Moho. Perhaps you can try them, see the scripts section. They are not simulating this or that, they represents my opinion about how the tools could work. (Som...

It is possible to use a more recent version of glibc, but you have to upgrade the kernel etc. (practically everything in the /boot directory) and many libraries. You can keep the old glibc and all of the old libraries for the programs really want it (but most of the programs are running with the new...
