Auto-Focus Timeline on Selected Layer (Button or Script)
Posted: Wed Oct 13, 2021 10:22 pm
Copied this from a scripting request but apparently the vertical scrolling of the timeline isn't available to fiddle with in Lua so yeah entering this as a feature request:
Hi again!
I'm really sorry for floating this forum, but i'm really getting seriously back into Moho again after being absent for a couple of years and mainly using Toon Boom so a lot of open questions
Just dove into 3rd party scripts now though and really like what i found so far! Will make life so much easier for sure!
Again, apologies if this already exists, but in Toon Boom there is a great feature, where i can press a button or a shortcut and it automatically focuses my timeline and node view on a selected piece of artwork. This is very handy when working with a lot of layers or complex rigging situations.
With Moho i think this would also be nice! Imagine you have like 5-10 layers visible in your timeline by selecting them and you want to quickly focus on another layer that you selected. Right now i have to manually scroll through the timeline vertically to find the selected layer (granted it being exposed to the timeline). What i propose is that you select the layer, click a button or a shortcut and it automatically scrolls to the respective layer in the timeline, if it is exposed to it.
Really simple idea really but could be a nice quality of life improvement.
BTW, is there a way to sort my icons of the "Other" section of my scripts somehow manually? Right now it made a real mess and i'd like to sort them myself and put the icons that are i.e. from the same tool next to each other etc.
Thanks a ton!

It's really a gods-end. I would strongly suggest looking into scripts more because they add a lot of cool functionality. Moho kinda reminds me of Maya or After Effects. You start with a blank slate with the basics and then you add what you need.
