Moho Animation Forum

Hello I'm tapehead, I'm just starting out and I'm looking at the manual right now.
It says somewhere on the tutorial that the bones should automatically bind with the figure, something called automatic bone binding, however it doesn't seem to work for me, when I move the bones the figure doesn't move along with it, it only seems to work for already made moho objects.
Is this normal?
And yes, the bone is inside the figure.

I presume the figure has to be inside the bone.

Cheers

Hello tapehead,

Nolan is referring to the fact that a vector layer has to be a "child" layer of the bone layer for bones to work.

This step is covered in the first paragraph of the "Adding Bones" section of Tutorial 1.4, in the manual (in Moho, go to the Help menu, and choose "Help ...").

Actually performing all the steps in the excellent tutorials (rather than just reading them) will help a lot in building familiarity with the Moho interface and workflow.

Here is the same step in SWF format, if you are more of a visual person: http://www-personal.monash.edu.au/~myle ... bread.html
