Shy function

Updated: 11/21/2023

You can work more efficiently by hiding parameters that you do not need, for example, when creating animations for embedding in an SDK.
(For example, breathing to operate autonomously, hair swaying to be set by physics calculations, etc.)

Hide Properties

Use the [Shy] function to hide properties.

First, click on the small [Shy] button to the left of each property.
Then click on the large [Shy] button above the track to activate it, which hides the specified element.
Click the large [Shy] button again to return to the original view.

To hide multiple properties, you can efficiently hide them by [dragging] the small [Shy] buttons one after the other.

If properties are grouped by folders, the shy can be applied to each folder.
Click the small [Shy] button to the left of the folder name, as you would if you were hiding the property by itself.
Click on the large [Shy] button above the track to activate it, which hides the specified element.
Click the large [Shy] button again to return to the original view.

Tips

You can use the Shy function in various ways, such as hiding the parameters for facial expressions when you want to create body movements first, or hiding the parameters for parts that do not need to be moved.

Enable keyframe operations for properties hidden with Shy

When multiple selections or edits are made to a Parameter folder or Keyframe, you can toggle whether the edits affect parameters that are hidden because Shy has been applied to them.

Selected (default):
Shy is applied to “EyeL open/close” to hide it, and then all keyframes are selected and moved to the right.
After that, the application of shy is cleared. Check the “EyeL open/close” keyframe to see that they are moving together.

Cleared:
Shy is applied to “EyeL open/close” to hide it, and then all keyframes are selected and moved to the right.
If you then clear the application of shy and check the “EyeL open/close” keyframe, you will see that it remains in its original location, unaffected by the editing.
