Move weights to other influences
 
 
 

The Move weights tool lets you easily move weights from one influence to another, without having to manually reset or change the weight value.

To move weights for selected vertices

  1. Select the vertices with weights you want to re-assign.
  2. Open the Paint Skin Weights Tool (Skin > Edit Smooth Skin > Paint Skin Weights > ).
  3. In the Influences list, select the joint(s) you want to assign as the new influence(s) for the selected vertices.
  4. Do one of the following:
    • Click the Move weights tool in the Paint Skin Weights Tool.
    • Select Skin > Edit Smooth Skin > Move Weights to Influences from the main menu bar.

    The weights of the selected vertices are moved to the new influence(s) you selected, and the skin points are now influenced only by those influences.

    For example, the following table illustrates the weight value changes on two selected target influences as you move weights for two vertices from one or more source influence(s).
