Stretch neck and torso parts by locking hands and feet.

After releasing stretching, the segment can resume to its original length. Rubber-band stretch midpoint segments like elbow, waist, knee. Stretch Animation - Freely extend any character’s end segments - head, hands and feet. Set keys only to Selected Body Parts, or to Full Body motion layers. One transform timeline track can keep End Effector Constraints and it’s Effective Range. Intuitive pose-to-pose editing without switching IK and FK modes. Intuitive Auto IK/FK Switch - Drag-and-move end effectors for IK editing, directly rotate joins for FK editing. Keep or Flip Joint Bend Direction during animation editing. Position character end effectors for precise IK interaction. Easy-locking feet and hands for unlimited motion possibilities. Easy IK Editing - Stretches, squatting, and hip rotation made simple by moving the hip bone. Just lock the character feet to have perfect non-sliding foot contact, and lock the character’s hand to get a precise interaction with props or scene. The intuitive 2D in IK / FK system auto-switches invisibly so character posing for animation is a fluid, and logical process.

Smart IK (Inverse Kinematic) Simple and functional design sets Cartoon Animator apart from other 2D Animation tools. In addition, you can perfectly adapt motion files with different body shapes from our motion library, even fine-tune the character's stride or alter its motion genre.

Posing with locking end effectors gives you power to precisely animate characters with scene interaction. Say goodbye to foot sliding, sinking or floating problems, the new Smart IK/FK system not only switches automatically, it makes creating amazing cartoon animation so much easier. All New in Cartoon Animator 4: ENHANCED CHARACTER ANIMATION This WIP 1 demonstrates how Reallusion made 2D Character Animation more precise, powerful, yet more intuitive.
