Hi! In setting up a rig, I'm finding that I often need to correct the placement of a parent bone, but I need to keep all its children in place while I do so. Is there a way to do this quickly? I know I can unparent all of its children, move the root, and then reparent everything, but the concern wou...

Still curious if there's a better method for script development than opening / closing Moho? Do you mean for loading/updating scripts? If so, Shift+Ctrl+Alt+L will do that. Can't help with the other stuff, but hopefully, someone with a lot more scripting experience than I have will stop by shortly....

You can use the tool at: https://mohoscripting.com/new_script to help quickly generate script structures. The SimpleDialog does return to Run after OK & Cancel - but you will need to use HandleMessage if you want to respond to any other button click. The tool above - creates all of that. For ID...

Still curious if there's a better method for script development than opening / closing Moho?

Hi all, I'm new to scripting in Lua and especially Moho. I'm not sure I understand yet, even after looking at some examples, of how to get a button in a SimpleDialog to call a function. Some context: I'm trying to write a simple script (unless something like this exists already) to replace text in b...

I have updated the Reference Layer Update script at: https://www.lostmarble.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=206888 - such that it now ReSync's Point Bindings. For the Point Binding Resync to work, the ref layer must already be in sync (green arrow) - or the Replace Mismatched Vectors option also selected...

I did a little trial and error and figured out that the math for mirroring a chain of bones is actually fairly simple. I went ahead and wrote a primitive lua script for flipping selected bones across the layer's axis and it seems to work pretty well. Oh, that's very cool! Curious to see the script ...

But if you're in the early stages or rigging and haven't set up any Actions yet, just duplicate the limb's group and flip the group (the flip layer buttons are at the top when you choose the Transform Layer tool.) Then you can copy/paste the limb, flip at the root, and bind the layers to these bone...

The answer would currently be: Yes and No. Yes : If you create the Reference after you have Point Bound the Points No : If you modify the Point Binding after the Reference is created i.e. Modifications to Point Binding are not currently propagated to reference layers. AHHH. That's the issue. I expe...

I'm loving using reference layers - I'm finding that it's like using precomps in After Effects, except kind of even more efficient. I'm confused about one thing, though - can reference layers inherit the point binding of the original layer? I feel like I'm missing something, because it doesn't seem ...

Hi all! I'm a little stumped on this. I'm looking for a way to mirror a portion of a rig, eg. an arm, preferably something native (if it's not possible without a script, that's cool, but I'm the kind of dude that likes to learn to do things the hard way first so that I really understand what can and...

Here's a short and direct explanation. If you've created a custom style... 1. Select the shape(s) you want to apply the style to using the Select Shape tool. 2. Make sure the Advanced option is enabled in the Style window. This will reveal the Style 1 and Style 2 options. 3. Look under Style 1. Her...

I just explained styles the other day, copy and paste: Oh, yeah I think the style panel is pretty confusing for begginers, I had a hard time getting used to it. The key is to understand that it is like three panels or modes at the same time, and pay attention to which of these three modes are you a...

For the life of me, I cannot make sense of styles. I'm expecting this to behave like materials in a 3DCC app like Blender, or any vector illustration app like Illustrator, or After Effects, etc. That is, you would select a shape with the Select Shape tool, and the Style window would automatically po...

i bought the 12.5, now i planning the best upgrade route. wait for nov-dec sale. or just wait for moho 13.5 on humble bundle? I bought Moho 12.5 on Humble Bundle. I've been checking Humble Bundle very regularly for the last several years for random software deals, and I've personally never even see...
