Prop Tracks

Some animation clips will contain animated prop locators. Props can be attached to prop locators so they are animated along with your character.

The Characters tab of the Browser panel is where you can add prop tracks in your scene to attach to prop to animated locators.

An animation with a prop attached

Note:     If a prop track is selected when searching for clips in the Search tab, the search results will return animation clips matching your search criterias and at least one prop locator in them.

Double-click a prop track to see its properties in the Properties tab.

Adding an attachment clip

Note:     A Prop track does not have character proportions since the resulting animation is only an animated point in space.

In order to attach a prop to a clip with a locator, you need to right-click into a prop track, and select Add Attachment from the context menu. The attachment clip will show up red since it is not attached to anything just yet.
