Blending Keyframed Animation And Trax Clips

[ljilekor]

Is it possible to blend keyframed animation and animationclips in the trax editor?

Simple example: Character standing up from chair and walking away.
Given:
- A character with a CharacterSet of all animated channels.
- An animation clip (source) of a walkcycle created from the CharacterSet.
- On the timeline I animated the character standing up from the chair.

Goal:
I simply want the character to blend into the walkcycle after standing up.

Problem:
- I drag (or load) the walkcycle clip into the trax editor after the character stood up with a bit of overlap (let's say 10f).
- After a weight curve has been created, I blend the clips weight 0->1 (weightstyle attribute = from start) on the first 10 frames.
- The character pops when the time reaches thee 1st frame of the clip.
- I tried all kinds of combinations wit absolute/relative and weightstyle (Maybe not the right ones). Nothing results in what 'should be' the natural outcome. The character keeps jumping...

Could someone please help me on that issue?
Thanks in advance.

Make the standing up a clip, (yes you can edit them later just asi if they were keyframed)

No theres nio magical should just how it works, if it jumps then you must review what you think it does do.
