Re: resize/scale canvas only?

... How do I do this? Do I just drag the corner (w/ diagonal arrow cursor) of the Group's red box outline? What's the formula to get the exact previous Scale (X, Y, Z) of the Group content for let's say from 512 x512 pixels to 550 x 550 pixels dimension? When do I stop dragging/resizing down? ... S...

Re: resize/scale canvas only?

Yeah, that's what I was suggesting originally. I think the OP wants a 1-click solution that calculates the scaling compensation automatically. Yes, it would be very useful to have a 1-click solution like the Canvas Size feature in Photoshop . The Anchor option there works like Set Origin in Moho to...

Re: resize/scale canvas only?

Oh, I see what you want. The thinking is different in an animation program like Moho. The 'canvas' size (Project Dimensions, actually) in Moho is what you want to set for your final output, and this is normally decided before you start adding your content. When you change it after the fact, Moho tr...

Re: Pro: Reverse Rig and Artwork from Right to Left

The other option should work too, and it's probably simpler: just flip the bone layer (works even on frame 0). You can even make a smartbone to activate the flipping at any time. I don't see any problem with that method but I'm curious to know if other Moho users have a preference for one or the ot...

Re: resize/scale canvas only?

Under File: Project Settings you can make the canvas any size you want. (In Pro, I think it's up to 9000 x 9000 anyway.) I am also wondering about how to easily resize just the Canvas (just enlarging the outer border) and not the images & rigs inside. In Project Settings , it looks like everyth...

Re: Pro: Reverse Rig and Artwork from Right to Left

Yes, in this case you can simply flip the bone layer or flip the root bone of your character. By the way, a lot of games, like the successful Dead Cells, use the same sprites and just flip them to reduce art work and for performance reasons, even if the character has a big sword in one hand. I thou...

Re: Pro: Best Way to Correct Knees & Elbow Folds on Raster Images

From the user manual: This command works on a pair of selected bones (for example, bones for the upper and lower arms, or upper and lower legs). The two bones also have to have a parent-child relationship, and start out in close to a straight line . I adjusted the bones, aligned them more straightl...

Re: Pro: Best Way to Correct Knees & Elbow Folds on Raster Images

I've tried using Smart Joint based on the video tutorial. But I can't seem to use it because the option is disabled for me even in Pro. Are there other steps I need to do to make it work? Kindly refer to image below:

Re: Pro: Best Way to Correct Knees & Elbow Folds on Raster Images

Yes, try Smooth Joint first. It's the easiest thing to try and if it works, that's great! Smooth Joint is what I used for the Puss In Boots elbows and in other early Moho TV work. It can work well for certain textures, however, you might see issues with very detailed textures, like between your cha...

Experienced the same thing. After posting it publicly and rerunning Moho Pro 12.5, dragging layers is now suddenly working fine on my side.
