Copying and Pasting Tracks

Biped's Copy/Paste rollout on the Motion panel provides controls for copying and pasting biped tracks from one part of the biped to another, or from one biped to a different biped. At the top of this rollout are three buttons: Posture, Pose, and Track.

This section covers the copying and pasting of tracks. For information on the other options on this rollout, see Copying and Pasting Postures and Poses.

To copy and paste biped tracks, turn on Tracks. The remaining controls in the rollout change to reflect that you are working with tracks:

• The copy button changes to a Copy Tracks button.
• The two Paste buttons become Paste Tracks and Paste Tracks Opposite, respectively.
• The Paste Horizontal, Paste Vertical, and Paste Rotation buttons in the Paste Options group become active.

Procedures

To copy a track from one biped to another:

1. Select any part of the biped, then go to the Motion panel.
2. On the Copy/Paste rollout, click (Create Collection). Rename the new collection Biped Track.
3. Click the Track button to use Track mode. Then select the biped parts whose tracks you want to copy.
4. Click (Copy Track).

   Biped creates a new track buffer, and adds it to the list as the active buffer. The buffer's name indicates which biped parts you selected.

5. Select any part of the other biped.
6. In the Paste Options group, enable all three Paste buttons.
7. Click (Paste Track) or (Paste Track Opposite).

   The tracks for all biped parts are applied to the other biped regardless of which parts are selected on the biped.
