Only One Eye Blinks with "Blink Eyes Together" Selected

Searching 'blink' here brings up a million things, but I couldn't find this one. My apologies if this has been covered ad nauseam. I will happily read any thread I'm directed to.

If I have Track Item Behaviors/Face/Blink Eyes Together deselected both of my eyes blink, but, of course, not together. And it really looks creepy. But if I select it, only the left one blinks. I have been searching the layers and tags like crazy and I just can't see anything that is set up differently between left and right.

    I think you cannot group the blinks like that - they need to go in the "left eye" and "right eye" groups. The blink replaces all its siblings, so putting the left and right blink in the one group means when one eye blinks, the other blink disappears. Instead, put the blinks in corresponding eye groups so it replaces everything else normally displayed for an eye.

    I do it slightly non-standard, but you can see the blink is in side each eye group, so the blink replaces everything else in that group when the blink occurs.

    Thanks Alan. That was it exactly and your explanation helped me understand why that was the fix.
