Assets Float when Animating. Will Effect Slow rendering?
Forgive me I'm a Newbi with Anime studio Pro 11,
This question may have been asked (If so please point me to the post)
How do you stop Floating assets - I've placed completed bones in the body and the arm and Hand of my character,
I have some control bones for the face movement (eyes, mouth, face left to right.) everything responded well but when
I moved the arm the hand floated in a circular motion.
I checked to see if it was parented to another bone other than the arm, it wasn't.
My rig is vector layers: Hand - lower arm - Upper Arm - Shoulder bone - to chest bone. All on Separate layers.
And will using the color effect slow down rendering.
Any Help will be Appreciated.

I think we need more information to be able to help you. Any chance you could share the Anime Studio file?

Victor - Thanks for Replying,
I got ready to load the file and noticed residual "Actions" of long deleted assets. After I deleted the unneeded actions everything is working.
If possible I still would like to know if I use to much of the color shading effects (Shading trees rocks legs arms etc.. ) will this effect the rendering time. ( I have a 3D background and added items often added rendering time.)
Thank you again.
PS - I can't wait to finish the animation - I'll send you a heads up to view it once its complete.
Best Regards,
Dremond

Ok it's back: Assets Float once bones in plac and animating.
OK - I thought this problem was solved but it's not - I've uploaded a stripped file so that problem can be easily viewed.
When you move the arm which is bound to the bone - the palm or hand floats in a circle instead moving normally.
It may be a Newbi error - but this keeps happing to me. (See Attached file)
Any help is appreciated.

The problems back - how do I share the file with you?
Re: Ok it's back: Assets Float once bones in plac and animat
You don't. There are a ton of free file sharing sites. Pick one, upload, then put the reference link here.

Moderator note: I merged your new topic with this old one. Since the problem is the same, it's cleaner to have all the discussion here.

Thanks Dale and thank you guys for your patients with the Newbi,
Here's the file - again I stripped it down to the actual floating asset issue.
Thank you for the help.

Not sure how many people want to sign up to download that. Might try dropbox instead.

After pounding away at the file I found the problem. Click on the transform layer tool. Look at the z of each layer. The arm is at 0 the rest of the layers are at -14.6815. Put 0 in for the z and see what happens.

Glade I could provide a challenge for you
It Worked! The problem seems to be fixed! I thank you and everyone who provided feedback,
Hopefully as I grow with ASP 11 program I can be more of a contributor to the solutions needed
instead of the problems.
Thank you guys again.!!
