Tool for Autodesk MotionBuilder to help create inbetween keyframes on the selected objects/character
Rig: Paragon: Wukong
- Overshoot the pose by dragging the slider beyond it's maximum values
- Hold down ctrl to snap between 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 etc.
- Hold down shift for more granular control
- Double click the slider handle to manually type in a value
The tool takes your Keying Mode into consideration, e.g. Body Part only affects the active body part(s).
Use the buttons T = Translation, R = Rotation, S = Scale, to toggle what the inbetween should affect
Right click anywhere on the slider to bring up a context menu with additional options:
On: Blends from the current pose to the neighboring keyframes
Off: Creates the absolute inbetween between the previous and next keyframe
If checked you can overshoot the pose by dragging the slider beyond its maximum values
