Do one of the following: From the Brush Properties dialog, click on the New Brush Preset button in the top-right corner. Configure your brush to be exactly how you wish to use it in the futuresee Creating a Brush. Click on the Arrow button to open the Brush Properties dialog. I will write – again – to Ugee and see if they can do any better at resolving this mismatch of hardware and software. In the Tools toolbar, select the Brush tool or press Alt + B. (When both monitors are clones, the cursor tracking is accurate when one monitor is an extended desktop of the other, the cursor is offset). It was rather frustrating because TB kept asking us questions we had already answered (eg, “Are you using Windows 10?” when we had already provided all the specs of our software and hardware).Īnd so it went for about a half-hour…TB rounded up the usual suspects (eg, do the resolutions match?, is the scaling at 100%%, is the scaling disabled?) and nothing changed.Īnd of course nothing is going to change because TB did nothing we hadn’t already tried ourselves, and had already explained to TB.Īnyway, bottom line, until either TB or Ugee work things out, separately or together, the two products (Harmony Advanced and Ugee UG-2150) will not play nice together in a dual-monitor setup in extended mode. Toon Boom tech support sent us “Team Viewer” which we installed and which allowed Toon Boom to control our PC. Just got offline from a remote access session. We are using a Ugee UG-2150 tablet (that Toon Boom does not support). To animate this you need to use keyframe animation with tweens to make the different parts of the rig move, however this is something I will learn next time.Our problem is cursor offset when using a dual monitor setup in extended desktop mode. Then after following those steps for each layer you end up with something like in the image below.

Can also show all manipulators to show all the rig.

Show Deformation button (Next to rigging tool).Rename transformation (Next to button above).Press Create new deformation chain (4th button from Hammer button).

To make a deformation rig in Toon boom I followed the following steps and then applied them to each of the features/ layers for the Squid. The reason for this is because if you don’t do this Toon Boom will merge all the layers together into one layer rather than individual layers, making it harder to rig. Anyway the key for making the deformation rig in Toon boom is to make sure all the different features in the drawing such as Head, Eye, Body, Mouth & Tentacles are on separate layers in group folders. As you can see they are pretty similar except I went for a realistic/ cartoon style with my design. In yesterday’s lesson I learned how to use deformation rigging in characters/ creatures that are flexible or have not bones, for instance a squid! So the task yesterday was to create a squid drawing in Photoshop and then import it into Toon Boom to rig with deformation rigging.īelow is a reference image I used to draw my squid design in Photoshop.īelow is my Photoshop drawing I designed using the reference image above.
