That's fantastic, cheers for the info, it certainly a feature that many of
our students (especially from a traditional animation background) have been
crying out for! Does it work as a script, an animation mixer option or an
operator on the characters mesh?

Yes, and it is tight!

I went through it with 1 of our animators and there was nothing that he
wanted to see that wasn't there - including IK/FK ghosting

There was a great trick discovered by someone on the beta programme were
animation ghosting allowed you to see the ghosting for a rigid body
simulation :-)

Hello,

Can anyone verify whether ghosting/onion skinning is available in XSI 4?
If not, can anyone recommend a method for ghosting animation of a character,
who's meshes have been enveloped to a rig.

Cheers!!!
