5.2.01 (02/10/2025)

Modeling

《 Improvement items 》

5.2.00 (02/04/2025)

Common

《 Improvement items 》

• Fixed a problem in which the icon display sometimes did not become selected when using the arrow tool.
• Fixed a problem in which tools for the modeling view could be selected in the animation view.
• Fixed a problem in which when objects were selected using the [Ctrl] or [Shift] keys on the parts pallet or deformer palette, the selection state was not reflected in the other palette.

Modeling

《 Improvement items 》

• Fixed a problem that could result in incorrect shapes when adding control points to an art path with [Close ArtPath] enabled.

• Made the behavior of copying, pasting, and blending forms of partially selected warp deformer vertices more intuitive when “Vertices info” and “Invert coordinates” were enabled in Options for Paste Form Special and “Flip over” was enabled in the warp deformer tab.
• Fixed a problem in which changing the compatibility in the form’s blend preview did not result in the expected motion when “Vertices info” and “Invert coordinates” were enabled and the axis was set to “Auto Setup” and “Center of selected object” in Options for Paste Form Special.
• Fixed a bug in which copying and pasting a form did not result in the expected motion when “Vertices info” and “Invert coordinates” were enabled in Options for Paste Form Special and one of the objects of the form copying source and the pasting destination did not have a parent deformer.
• Fixed a bug that caused objects to be selected differently than expected in some cases before and after pasting/blending a form.
• Fixed a bug that caused the child objects to be affected by the parent deformer twice, resulting in different motion than expected, when the following operations were performed with “Vertices info” and “Invert coordinates” enabled in Options for Paste Form Special.
  • A form is copied while multiple objects with deformer parent-child hierarchies are selected.
  • A form is pasted to or blended with other multiple objects (e.g., symmetrical objects) with the same parent-child hierarchies as above.
