Re: Why is 'Copy Previous Key' grayed-out?

Hi. I'm on version 14. When I have keys selected, I guess I'm seeing the red text issue you mentioned. I see Copy Previous on the information bar in the box, but Copy Previous doesn't work. When I click on a keyframe, I see "Add Keyframe, Cut, Copy" and so forth, all the way down to "...

Why is 'Copy Previous Key' grayed-out?

Recently 'Copy Previous Key' grayed-out. I want to use it, but can't. How do I get it back?

Also, sometimes 'Copy Previous Key' doesn't appear in the list of interpolations. Why doesn't it always appear? What is the circumstance that causes it to be missing from the list?

Thanks.

Re: Zoom and Track icons

I believe the 'plus' sign is meant to be a compass, indicating lefl-right (X-pos) and up-down movements (Y-pos). A compass? That's such an awful an idea, it can't be right. The plus symbol looks nothing like a compass. A compass icon needs a bounding circle, and it must have at least a dot to indic...

Zoom and Track icons

The icons for Track Camera and Zoom have never made sense to me. They make a little more sense when they are reversed (the Track Camera icon for Zooming, and the Zoom icon for Tracking Camera). May we have better icons? For Track Camera, instead of a confusing plus sign, use a left and right arrow. ...

Re: Finally 14

Well, the first thing I did was testing the dreaded alpha issue. Hi, fellow Mac Mini user. I exported an animation in Moho 14 of a character without a background and preserved the transparency. I did not use MOV (ProRes). I used MOV (PNG alpha-PCM). Quicktime would not play the rendered video, but ...

Re: Bending a knee joint when leg is stretched

3) Use point animation to 'un-correct' the pose Set knee bone angle rotation limits? So it doesn't go full 90 or 180 degrees. Or maybe I understand this wrong. Thanks! Both of these solutions will work for me. I was kinda hoping there would be a solution involving adding a new bone perpendicular th...

Bending a knee joint when leg is stretched

I use target bones to keep a character's feet planted when their root bone is moved. The legs are also have the stretching option activated. When the legs are stretched, naturally the legs are in a straight line, like a rubber band pulled taut. Is there a way to add some bending to the knee joint af...

Text Box suggested improvements

The "Enter Text" box in a Text Layer is kinda small. I always spend too much time trying to format lengthy sentences, because what you see isn't what you get. It would be great if the text box were bigger - especially wider. Also, the mouse scroll wheel doesn't scroll in the text box, only...

Re: Change color of character

This can be done easily with Styles, imo. If a lizard is 5 greenish colors, make 5 appropriate Styles on frame 0 and use them to color the lizard. If the lizard changes to brown colors on frame 24, go to frame 24 and change the 5 Styles to new brown colors. The lizard is now brown, and you'll get a ...

Re: Ability to Customize Timeline Numbers to Match Frame Interval Display Lines

I like how Moho is 24 fps. That's the fps of classic Disney cartoons, after all. 8) I have animated at 30 fps in Moho a few times, and didn't have a problem. It's been a while, but I may've used markers in the timeline as reminders, or maybe I just remembered. That being said, I like having more opt...

Thanks! I tried it and it worked great. By the way, your explanation was excellent.

A little more information for Mac users: use command instead of control to erase, and adjust the size of the blob eraser by holding down command and option.

Re: The Twin Brothers (my latest project)

The voice actor of the princess was great. I like the way the spoke their dialogue.

The animation was interesting and fun. I didn't pay much attention to the story; I kept watching mostly to see how you would animate the next scene.

GASP! I've seen "Belgarath" at the top of every thread, but I've never seen a post by this moderator. I feel both confused and amazed, like the time I saw an albino squirrel.
