How do I start an animation with the puppet sitting down? I tried everything . I can get the puppet to sit down, but then it goes back to the stading postion if I do ny click on another scene on the timeline.

Please understand that I am not a native English speaker and may not understand your question correctly.

(1) First, raise the puppet's arms and make him sit up.
(2) While it is in that position, record the video.
(3) If you move the timeline to the first position, the puppet will indeed return to its default state.
(4) However, if you replay the timeline, it will start with the puppet in the sitting position with arms raised.

This is a specification of this application.
Is this behavior inconvenient for you?
Thanks.

Hello.
Is it possible to upload a screenshot or a video showing the symptoms?
Usually, if you record the movement while sitting,
The very first state is standing, but it will play from sitting.
Is such behavior a problem for you?

Thank you for your reply.

 

Actually my issue could be a very simple one to an expert,  Let me ask it in another way.

 

Lets say I want my puppet to start the scene with thier hands up over thier head. To do that, I assume I need to have their hands in that situation in reg mode.

I am basically unable to work in reg mode like I would in record mode. So if I take the hand an place it over the head in reg mode, the whole hand comes off 🙂

So can I manipulte the puppet in reg mode just like I would in record mode?
