Mastering Action Flipping in VP Online
Visual Paradigm Online is your go-to animation tool, packed with customization options to bring your creative vision to life. From trimming and merging actions to precise rotations, VP Online offers versatile features for crafting professional animations. In this article, we will focus on the Flipping Feature, which allows you to mirror actions seamlessly
Why Flip Actions Instead of the Whole Character?
Flipping the action rather than the entire character is more convenient for several reasons:
- Preserving Customization: Flipping the entire character also flips the bones, making offset customizations more complex. By flipping just the action, the bones retain their original alignment.
- Maintaining Continuity: Flipping actions ensures the character’s overall appearance, like hair, clothes, or accessories, stays consistent, preserving continuity across your animation.
When to Use the Flipping Feature
The flipping feature comes in handy in many scenarios, such as:
- Mirroring Movements: Quickly create opposite actions, like a character waving with their left hand instead of the right.
- Ensuring Symmetry: For animations with symmetrical elements, flipping actions can balance the visuals.
- Maintain Seamless Prop Continuity: When a character interacts with props, flipping actions can maintain the correct hand or orientation, ensuring smooth and natural interactions.
