"Linear" as default?

Post by Zaphod »

I find I use the "linear" curve more than "smooth", and it gets tedious changing it every time i make a keyframe, is there any way to make it go to linear automatically?

No, it isn't possible to do this automatically, but we'll see about making this an option.

If you click the first node on a timeline layer all keyframes are selected and can be set to lineair. So you can do it after you set some keys. Not a 100% solution but better then setting every single key.

Please, LM, put that as an option in the next update if you can. It's actually fairly rare that I want to use the "smooth" interpolation, and setting the default ( in the project settings?) otherwise would be great.

even better would be if there were some kind of bezier handles like in lightwave or after effects. the graph edditor in moho drives me crazy! i really hope this will be improved, now i make my curves how i want them by adding a lot of linear keys but if i want a small change its a lot of work; guessing, changing, geussing, changing, well, you know.... goin crazy!


dear lost marble people, you made me stop drawing with pencil and paper, i spend my days behind this screen now, please make it pleassant here.......

lots of love,

It's known that some people don't like to design their characters in Moho and use other apps (Illustrator, Freehand, Expression 3, Corel Draw etc.) for that.

Anyway, I wouldn't throw away your pencils. They are great for thumbnailing.
