Where is Translate Bone?

Post by JJPcartoni »

In Anime Studio 10 I don't see the Translate Bone tool..
Did it erase in this new version? Or, Is it only hidden?

The transform bone tool contains Rotate, Translate and Scale.
Dragging the bottom dot translates, the top dot Scales. Dragging the bone itself, rotates.
You also have key modifiers: Ctrl to force scale, Alt to force translation.

I'm sure this is just an "old dog/new tricks" scenario, but I hate the new combined bone tool so far. It becomes increasingly difficult to grab the right bone and often end up moving the wrong thing. This is especially noticeable when using target bones in an ankle, for instance, where you have three bones on top of each other. Trying to get just the right tiny little dot to move is an exercise in frustration. :(

You can put the old tools in the Custom content folder, they still work :)

This is great news! I will give it a shot and hopefully not screw everything up too much. Thanks!
