So it is not easily to reproduce the same behaviour twice.
If you could just edit the duration in that pop-up, or better still pull and push the ends of the blocks to change duration it would be much easier.]]> Wed, 23 Oct 2013 20:49:19 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic3120-request--edit-duration-in-the-timeline.aspx Message from ziggy72 Lev_Dynamite wrote:

When you grab the head control with the mouse it pretty much produces a single entry on the timeline unless you are moving like a robot. Natural movements produce a single entry whereas they used to produce multiple entries.
I'm wondering if we're getting crossed wires with what we're talking about here, or if your Muvizu is acting up... Apologies if I'm away talking about something totally different from what you mean, but in the (large) animated GIF HERE I am clicking the head movement tracker once, moving it around so the character looks left, up, right, down and back to the centre, and then only taking my finger off the mouse button at the very end and producing multiple Timeline blocks. Is this not what you're talking about?


Yeah, now try this - save your set with your dude slowly moving his head about. Reload it, and play it back - jerk, stutter, jerk is how it now looks. I have to redo all head movements for all characters every time I reload a set as it loses the original input information and seems to set the move speed back to 50 (I typically use between 6 and 12).]]> Wed, 23 Oct 2013 16:30:10 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic3120-request--edit-duration-in-the-timeline.aspx Message from ukBerty
Sorry - I seem to be speaking bunk.]]> Wed, 23 Oct 2013 12:03:25 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic3120-request--edit-duration-in-the-timeline.aspx Message from Lev_Dynamite ukBerty wrote:

I think we all just want it back to something like how it was as we had much more control (please feel free to disagree).]]> Wed, 23 Oct 2013 11:01:44 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic3120-request--edit-duration-in-the-timeline.aspx Message from Lev_Dynamite little gap between. Perhaps still not ideal, and your suggestion does actually tie into something we're already looking at so hopefully a more suitable fix will be in a near-future update, but I just thought I should clarify that you CAN get individual blocks to a certain extent! ]]> Wed, 23 Oct 2013 09:50:43 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic3120-request--edit-duration-in-the-timeline.aspx Message from MrDrWho13 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 07:21:21 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic3120-request--edit-duration-in-the-timeline.aspx Message from ukBerty
I would like to see a return to the multi-point head move. When you move a head you now get a continuous line which you can only adjust forward and back in time. In the long distant past you used to get a lot of individual marks corresponding to when you moved the head. This would be quicker to animate as you would do one pass with all the movements and then squash or extend the gaps in between to get them in the right place.

Now you have to do a pass and get them in the right place relative to each other. If you don't you have to do it again. This means animation now takes longer and you have to "settle for less" as it's a lot harder. Same goes for eyes as well.

Can we return to the way it was please as it was demonstrably better ?]]> Wed, 23 Oct 2013 06:38:49 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic3120-request--edit-duration-in-the-timeline.aspx Message from primaveranz Also if you can't change it then why show the duration box at all? It just gets one all excited ]]> Wed, 23 Oct 2013 03:37:00 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic3120-request--edit-duration-in-the-timeline.aspx Message from fazz68 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 02:05:32 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic3120-request--edit-duration-in-the-timeline.aspx Message from primaveranz Wed, 23 Oct 2013 01:26:00 GMT
