- | ====== Animations ====== | ||
- | |||
- | For many models, animations are the most noticeable and most important feature: | ||
- | Animation sequences define how a model moves, behaves or transforms over a period of time. | ||
- | |||
- | Animation sequences, like the model itself, are typically created by the model artist before the model is imported into the Model Editor. | ||
- | |||

- | The **Animations** pane lists all animation sequences in the model. | ||
- | |||
- | For each animation sequence, | ||
- | * its name and | ||
- | * the sequence number | ||
- | is shown. | ||
- | |||
- | A single click on an animation sequence selects it, a double click opens the **Animation Inspector** pane as well. | ||
- | |||
- | Pressing the **F2** key or a single-click on an already selected animation sequence allows you to rename the sequence in place. | ||
- | |||
- | The “**+**” button imports a new animation sequence (e.g. from a ''.md5anim'' file) and adds it to the list. | ||
- | The “**-**” button deletes the currently selected animation sequences. | ||
