Refine and Customize Actions with Rigging Tools

Visual Paradigm Online, a professional animation maker, provides a vast library of pre-made actions to help you create animations efficiently. However, these actions are not limited to direct application. With VP Online’s rigging tools, you can refine poses and customize actions to match your creative vision perfectly

Why Use Rigging Tools

Rigging tools are essential when fine-tuning actions or poses to suit different character families. Since characters may vary in body shape, height, or proportions, applying the same action to all of them can sometimes result in unnatural movements. Rigging tools allow you to adjust these actions for a more natural fit. Additionally, they empower you to customize and even create new actions tailored to your specific needs.

Action & Pose Customization

Edit Pose Offset

The Edit Pose Offset tool lets you select individual joints and rotate them using the gizmo. This adjustment applies to the entire action, enabling changes like raising a character’s hands or repositioning limbs. The tool is intuitive and straightforward, making pose refinement a seamless process.

Edit Arm Spacing

Adjusting arm spacing is effortless with a simple slider. This tool ensures that actions accommodate characters with varying arm lengths, maintaining natural proportions and fluid movements.

Adjust Shoulder Position

This tool allows you to modify shoulder positions vertically with a slider. Beyond refining poses, you can use this feature to convey emotions—lower shoulders for a sad demeanor or raised shoulders for an angry expression. This adds depth and nuance to your characters’ actions.

Save And Reuse Custom Actions

Once you have customized an action or created a new one, VP Online allows you to save it in your action library. This feature ensures that you can easily reuse refined poses or unique actions in future projects, saving time and enhancing consistency across your animations.
