Change size of figure in animation

kperlich

Hi,

I try to create an animation that lets my emotiguy come in scene. My idea is to use a figure size of near zero in first pose and full size in last pose of the same figure. But changing the size makes the figure smaller/bigger in all frames.
How can I create such a growing figure?

Btw. It's my first animation, so maybe that's a really simple thing.

Thanks for help

use scale - i just did - 0 frame 12% - 30 frame 100%
works .

But using "scale" (I use

[Tools] => [Scale]

) always scales all frames.
How can I scale single frames?
Best would be to scale e.g.frame 1 to 10% and frame 30 to 100% so the figure would scale during the animation fom 10% to 100%.
Is this possible (I'm sure it is.) and how?

Thanks for help

First off Scale the figure just like 1% up. Now Key frame that, now go down the timeline and scale it as much as needed and Key frame that.
This only functions on the DAZ Studio Timeline NOT in the AniMate scrub line.

use scale in parameters
not tool

Just click the icon showing a key with a + in the Timeline to set a keyframe for the base scale where you want that, then go to the other frame and set it to 0.
