Set Rest Pose now animates smoothly back to the default position when you click to recalibrate, so you can use it during a live performance without causing your character to jump abruptly, for example if you inadvertently move your face out of the frame.This allows the user to keep their character’s feet grounded when not walking. Pin Feet has a new Pin Feet When Standing option.

Merge Takes allows users to combine multiple Lip Sync or Triggers into a single row, which helps to consolidate takes and save vertical space on the Timeline.Lip Sync, powered by Adobe Sensei, has improved algorithms and machine learning, which now delivers more accurate mouth movement for speaking parts.Toggle the “Shy button” to hide or show individual rows in the Timeline. Takes can be color-coded, hidden, or isolated, making it faster and easier to work with any part of your scene. Timeline organization tools include the ability to filter the Timeline to focus on individual puppets, scenes, audio, or key frames.For example, pin a hand in place while moving the rest of the body or make a character’s feet stick to the ground as it squats in a more realistic way. Limb IK controls the bend directions and stretching of legs, as well as arms. Limb IK (Inverse Kinematics) gives puppets responsive, natural arm and leg motion for activities like running, jumping, and dancing across a scene.
