Subject: Pro Pack Animation Sets

From the Pro Pack manual:

"You can also apply animation sets to figures. For example, if you
create an animation set of an arm being raised, applying that set to
your current figure will cause its arm to raise in the exact way
specified by the animation set. This feature can help you save time
by allowing you to reuse complex animations over and over."

Animation sets are created in the Animation window, but I'm not sure how to save and reapply an animation set to another figure in another file. I thought there would be a way to save/load animation sets.

Thanks,
Dan

Just save to the pose library as a pose. There's a dialog that comes up that we're all used to ignoring but don't ignore it for this...tell it to save the number of frames you have instead of just 1 (the default).

Hey,

Thanks for the tip. I figured out how to do it. Here's a quick outline of the steps in case anyone else interested:

  1. Create desired animation for the body part(s)
  2. Open the Animation Window
  3. Select the Animation Sets tab
  4. Click New to create a new animation set
  5. Select the desired frames in the animation grid
  6. Click the plus (+) button to add the selected frames to the animation set
  7. You can repeat the above to create more animation sets, or more selections for the current animation set
  8. Close the Animation window
  9. Open the pose library where you will be adding the animation set
  10. Click the plus (+) button (Add to Library)
  11. Enter the Set Name in the Set Name dialog
  12. Click Select Subset
  13. Click the arrow next to Select from Animation Set and choose the desired set
  14. Click OK
  15. Click OK on the Set Name dialog
  16. Click YES to include the morph channels
  17. Click the Multi frame animation from the Save Frames dialog. Make sure the start and end frames are correct
  18. Click OK
