Sampler Property Editor

 
 
 

Edit and test the samplers used for the animation rig in Face Robot.

To display:

On the Act panel in the Face Robot layout, click the Export tab and choose Animation Export - Linked Shapes. In the Export Animation Rig Property Editor, first create samplers, then click the Inspect button.

For more information on the animation export in general, see Exporting Animation Rigs (Shapes) [Face Robot].

Align

Aligns the samplers' normals to the normals of the face geometry so that the lattices better follow the face's contours.

Scaling

Scales the lattice along the XYZ axes to adjust the size and position of the sampler around the control.

Density

Sets the density of the sampler's lattice along each axis. The denser the lattice, the more sampling points are used for creating the shapes. As you can imagine, increased density may increase the calculation time, but is useful for controls that move over a larger area in space, such as the chin or mouth.

Test

Tests the validity of the controls at every position generated from the sampler, with 0% being the first position (neutral pose) of the controls, and 100% being the last position.
