Can you mirror a turn?
Posted: Sun Dec 07, 2014 2:29 pm
Hi,
I'm still finding my way around Anime Studio.
I've created a character, and using a smart bone I manually moved the vector points to get the character turning smoothly to the left from a full to a 3/4 profile. This took a while to do, but the effect was great.
I now want to mirror the turn to the right. Is there a way I can do this without setting up another smart bone and having to painstakingly move the vector points again?
Using the layer transform tool, tried to flip the layers while in 3/4 view, but this didn't provide a smooth turn. I also tried the point transform tool by selecting all the vector points for each layer and flipping those. However, neither approach has worked.
Can anybody suggest a better approach? I think I'm probably missing something fundamental, as it seems obvious to be able to mirror a Smart bone move.
Many thanks
