Flip X causes some weird effects

Magnesus

Fliping the bone in the editor causes the image to move differently than the bone it is attached to when using transform. I haven't yet checked if it is consistent with the runtimes. I've only checked flip X.

PS. It happens when I use compensate.

Do you have an example project you can share with this, and some exact steps so we can take a look at it?

Hi,

I have the same issue with flipped bones and moving them with image compensation switched on.

What happens is:

I created a bone and duplicated it, flipped the copy bone with the "Flip X" checkbox. (both bones have images attached)

now when you try to adjust the bone with "Image Compensate" ON, it seems, that the compensate function doesn't consider the flip x checkbox and still compensates, but now in the wrong direction, which looks like a double transformation: meaning, the image moves double the amount of the bone now.

I hope I could explain the issues somehow clear 🙂
I made a forum search, but I am not sure if this is know already or a minor usability bug.
But it would be nice if this can get fixed in the next update!
Thanks!

Flip X is generally just broken. IK's don't like it, hierarchy sometimes can mess things up too
