I'd like to note that the relative paths are not truly relative. Paths are only relative as long as a file is in the same folder or sub-folder of the moho file... Thanks for the additional input, Lukas! I settled for 'it's still kind of messy' in my post because, TBH, I'm not always sure why it bre...

Sorry, I just remembered that Moho switched to relative paths a while ago so it's not quite as bad as described, but it's still kind of messy and easy to break compared to other programs where I can assign the current content directory. BTW, I manage potential drive letter conflicts using a handy ut...

I agree that Moho's content directory management is messy and easy to break. Most animation programs I work with allow me to assign a specific directory for a given production, which works much better. This way, even if when the entire production is move to a completely different drive, so long as t...

That seems really odd. Was that with the final 12.5.1 installer from here?:

This might not make a difference, but it should eliminate some variables.

Somewhat related is DKW Root's Swap Sides script, part of his collection found here... http://www.lostmarble.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=28816&p=162626&hilit=swap+sides#p162626 To use it, you pick a 'reflection' point in the curve, run the script, and it reshapes the curve into a mirr...

I will try to assign more shortcuts to use keyboard instead menus. If you can't get the flickering resolved, avoiding the menus should be a workable solution. II personally don't use the menus very much. Instead, I use some keyboard shortcuts, but I also use my MQC button panel a lot. MQC has butto...

I'm on Win10 here. I just now looked at this again. The text flicker I described isn't noticeable under normal use. I have to aggressively move the mouse back and forth quickly to see the flickering. When I used the mouse normally, I don't see the flicker at all. Have you tried updating your video d...

That's interesting. Mine flashes too, but I never noticed this before because my title bar is white (by default). What I do see is the black text blinking, it's just not nearly as distracting as the entire bar flashing like in the video.

That's actually a good idea for turns using Switch layers! I used to do something similar to off-set the eye bones when the head switches to the side view and there's a big jump in location for the eye art. But nowadays, for eye bones anyway, I just use 'external' eye bones with constraints...this w...

Hi, I’m not sure which rigging approach you’ve taken, but I typically place the entire head in its own group, the body in its own group, and each whole limb in their separate groups. All of these groups are then placed under a single Bone group with the skeleton bones and Smart Bone Dials. This way,...

The way to work with separate upper and lower limbs is to make sure the bone's joint is centered in the drawing's joint region, and it helps if the joint region is perfectly circular. The way I deal with this is to make a circle layer in Photoshop to help me 'round out' the joint using the circle's ...

I'm currently working on some introductory Moho videos. The first ones are basic UI and workflow walkthroughs, and I'll follow up with demos and technique videos for beginning and advanced skill levels. These videos will be free, and I may set up a Patreon donation account if there's enough interest...

My intentions for this technology tend to be frivolous and not especially sinister.

(Of course, that's exactly what he would say, isn't it.)

Oh, speaking of Chucky's work, check out his Morphibian rig from the Moho 13 content. I was admiring that one the other day and trying to understand how he painted the skin texture. The brush work and colors are quite beautiful. The project has pretty awesome animation too!

Sure you can. When you bind a PNG image layer, Moho automatically generates a mesh so you can deform it. If you need more control or higher resolution, Moho lets you create your own mesh using SmartWarp. I recommend using Use Selected Bones For Flex-binding. This feature allows you to isolate the Fl...
