Mirror Animation Modifier
Version:
0.4
Date Updated:
02/28/2011 Mirror position/rotation animation tool written as modifier.
Additional Info:
It seems that it works fine here, but before improve it with other features,
I wish to know how this modifier works for you at this stage.
In other words, any feedback is welcome.
Usage Notes:
- Actual turning off is only when "OFF" radio buttons is checked !
New in v.0.4:
- Now original keys are restored when delete the modifier
- When cloned (and pasted as copy) the modifier is set to "OFF" (for both Pos/Rot)
Keep in mind that this plugin is still beta and very limited ;-)

Cool! Works fine on my Max2009, thanks.
Thanks Paul, glad to hear it
Thanks Paul, glad to hear it works :)
P.S. - Just a few more notes about deleting...
Seems simple in theory to turn the mod off on deleted:
on deleted do (this.posAxis = this.rotAxis = 8)
But... the help say that undo buffer block this event, and clearUndoBuffer() not help. So, deleted event handler (in all scripted plug-ins) is called only on File New/Reset, which unfortunately limit the advantage of deleted handler a lot.

Nope :/ Need to choose "OFF" radio button before deleting the modifier.
The post-factum way would be to add new MA modifier and to change the same axis again :)
Edit: I append notes about in the description.

Thanks for the comment. That reminds me that I should add some usage notes :) Yes, I know, it's an limitation, turning off the modifier in the stack does nothing, for that I include "OFF" radio button.

When you delete the modifier
When you delete the modifier or turn it off the animation is still flipped based on the last settings chose on the modifier.
Bug?
