In this series we will learn about the powerful 2D tool called ShapeBoolean, where you can combine multiple shapes, closed or opened, to form a resulting shape using various methods. In this first part, we will learn 3 different methods: Union, Subtract, and Intersect. Also, we will see the importance of the order we choose the combined shapes, plus the nice feature of adding Fillet or Chamfer to those combined shapes.

Simple dialog that shows all user-set hotkeys in one list. Hovering over each button shows the category and group of the action. Clicking the button executes the action - unless the button shows as disabled, which means that the action is not available (the macro might have got lost or it may belong to a plugin which is currently not installed).

If you find yourself changing modifier parameters to the same same values over and over again, make your life easier and use the same modifier with preset values instead.

This script will convert all keys for the selected biped limb along the timeline to either sliding keys or free keys. Can be useful when making adjustments to mocap animations which typically have keys on every frame.
