Oh! That's very clever, Victor! I was aware of navigating up and down the hierarchy with the arrowkays but never thought of using it this way. But that was my whole proposal :cry: :cry: :cry: It's basically the Toon Boom trick applied to Moho bones :lol: I just didn't know you could navigate up and...

Sorry, I haven't had time to read the entire thread yet, but about you know you can select the parent of the selected bone by just pressing the Up arrow on the keyboard? If a Pin bone is child of the bone you want to select and it's set to Ignored by IK, it could work as some kind of shortcut to se...

Having it in a separate window, like in the Harmony example you posted, would be fine, too. If the contents of the window could change based on layer selection (i.e., a character's Bones layer,) that would be great! (Kinda like how the Switch Selection window works now.) The stuff in the separate W...

If i have a bone layer and then a buttons layer under that, it already gets me out of the flow because i have to think an extra step to get to those buttons and shovel through layers again. Oh, I was thinking the buttons would be directly clickable without changing layer selection, like with Layer ...

Mmm i don't know if i agree. The goal should be to get as close to have to bother as little as possible with the layer window while animating except obviously to manipulate points and such. Hence why TB does these selector things so that the animators don't have to dig through the node view constant...

Please not more layers I think buttons could be integrated on a bone layer perhaps? Then you have everything at a glance at all time. At this stage i would be really careful not to introduce more layer types to Moho.

We have discussed the idea of layer selectors/shortcuts in the past (Wes even created a pretty impressive script some time ago). Maybe these could be shapes that when you click on them, you automatically jump to certain layer. Wouldn't something like that make more sense rather than a pin bone acti...

So very often we hear that people are having trouble selecting hard to reach bones. There are many solutions to this but from other software i learned to create little shapes, so called "selectors", that are added to hard to reach limbs or stuff like this. That way you just have to select ...

I can't say we will change this (single key shortcuts are rare because of the way Moho is built), but just to be sure: The shortcuts for Previous and Next keyframe are Option+Z & Option+X (not Option + X/Y). The idea was you could use your left thumb and index/middle fingers to navigate the tim...

I'm not a big fan of Grease Pencil's Timeline EXCEPT for the summary keyframe channel :D https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/_images/editors_dope-sheet_grease-pencil_view.png Also been teaching myself Apple Motion (After Effects user usually) and i really like the slick Apple interface AND it ...

https://i.postimg.cc/QdBH9QDj/Bildschirmfoto-2023-12-30-um-15-49-38.png Just occured to me that my very first Moho (AS 6) had the simplified timeline channels :D Ironic. Also this would be nice. Obviously it doesn't make much sense atm with the vertical lines and looks terrible but in essence... ht...

Played around with curvers today for the first time. Bound them to layers and animated this simple arm thing here inspired by Richard Williams' teachings about flexibility obviously. Quite love the result, feels a lot less mechanic! I loved using curve deformers in Toon Boom already so this is a gre...

So i've been thinking about how i'd attempt a front to profile headturn these days. The main problem is, that i want to use Switch mouths (Actually a whole head switch that snaps into the profile view when you turn the head far enough) and not Smartbones and have a separate Mouth set for the profile...

Aah okay i played around with it in an old file. I get it now. Well perhaps not ideal but i can live with it, at least now i know Thanks again!

That could be the answer, thanks Maarten! I'll pay attention next time where i'm copying and pasting and what and see if this was indeed the issue, totally possible.
