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,...

Re: Moho 13 vs 12.5, preview quality loss?

Hello, well, some time has gone by... and today I opened up Moho 13.5. on a Mac... and I had to realize that my vectors are still shown in a poor quality. Has there been a resolution by now? Or has one to work now in this 'jagged view'-state? Best! Hi. No, the latest version has actually solved the...

Touch scroll for timeline

I see I can use touch from my trackpad or Wacom to move around on the stage. Fingers can zoom, pan, even rotate. Nice, but I'd really like to scroll the timeline left and right as well. As far as I can tell, the only way to fast forward or rewind the timeline is to take your pen or mouse to one side...

Change position of bones and layers, even post-animation?

After a long pause I’m using Moho again and I’m finding it as good as always but also some rust has set in… so I'm facing a certain degree of re-learning. One thing I have never really grasped about the rigging process is how, if even possible, to change the position of bones and their relative laye...
