Hi, I am wanting to reverse the frames in my animation sequence. If I had a hand that waved from left to right and moved the fingers around as well for say 15 frames, is there a way to copy those frames and paste them to the next 15 frames in reverse order so that the hand would wave from left to right in 15 frames and then reverse from right to left for the next 15? Mirror the movement of the same object in reverse. Thanks for the help! Nebula

This could get complicated and also generate some weird results if you don't set up some breaks between key frames or else do this in a seperate file and splice the two sections together outside Poser. Whatever you do, make a backup before trying this. It is a bit involved, but lets say you want to reverse frames 5 through 10. Make insert a frame break for everything (select all) at frame ll (you could probably do this at frame 10 and start at 11 depending on the Ik settings up to that point). Go to the next frame (frame 12)which should be the exact duplicate of the last frame, where the action stopped that you want to reverse.) In the animation window, use the mouse and highlight and select all elements, and then make them all a keyframe. Advance the same number of frames as the next key frame (going in reverse order from 10 to 5 - say it is 7) Memorize all at frame 7, and go forward from frame (12) that number of key frames (7 to 10 ie 12 to 15) At frame fourteen restore all or else restore only the elements to be affected - like the hand and arm) Make these a key frame. Repeat the process with making the first key frame (5) in the original sequence the last key frame (17 if I counted right) and make that frame a key frame. Probably will then want to add another frame break at the next frame. Hopefully this makes sense. Rob

Actually, at least on earlier versions of Poser, there was an easy way to do this... I have (had?) an e-mail about it stored on my computer at home; I think it involved changing the frame numbers in the animation window or something like that. If I find it, I'll post it here.

Sounds cool. Hope you can find it as I would also be interested.

Wow, that would be great! Hope you find it! Thanks so much!
