Bones not working on Frame 1

[Marco]

I used layer binding for all of the sections of a character to the corresponding bones. I did this process on frame 0. When I use the manipulate bones tool on frame 0 it moves the character fine. When I go to frame 1 the bones move but the character does not. If I go to any other frame after 1 the bones bones work fine moving the character. I tried rigging the character again, twice, and same thing happens.

I don't know what's up. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

On frame zero, the manipulate bone tool can be used from a bone layer's sublayer to test. But on other frames, you must select the bone layer first.

That may be what you're seeing.

Did you accidentally set your animation to begin playing on frame 2?

Weird.

Maybe start a new project file, draw a rectangle, add a root bone and a bone in a bone layer, bind the rectangle layer to the bone and test again. It'll only a minute to set-up, but sometimes reducing a Moho problem to it's simplest form will reveal a solution.

I am working on the bone layer for animation with the manipulate bone tool. I know I said this is not working on "Layer 1", I meant "Frame 1". I've edited my original message. I'm so used to working in layers on Adobe programs that I completely mangled what I meant to say.

I did that before posting and it did work. But I want to find out if this is just some glitch/weirdness going on just on this specific file or if there is some setting or something that I accidentally switched on or off that is causing it.

Also, I forgot to mention in my original message that I have had this character rig done for a few days and was working fine. Then, today, BOOM! Monkey wrench in the works.

Okay, the problem was that I accidentally moved the green marker in the timeline over one space to frame 2. I moved it back and everything is working fine now.

Thanks everyone for your responses.
