102<p>To take advantage of the 'absolute time' feature, you need to edit multiple animations at one time to make them interact well. Each animation could sprout a new line in the time line window. Would need some indicator which is the current animation and way to switch so the numbers boxes and meta info displays make sense. Time between the many animations is synchronized, so stepping a frame forward, steps all animations forward.</p> 102<p>To take advantage of the 'absolute time' feature, you need to edit multiple animations at one time to make them interact well.

109<p>If you edit your pose, and the animations of 3 small balls, you could make a juggle animation with balls and hands synchronized. You can make "play catch" animations for two people and a ball. Be a multi-legged creature: add bones, attach prims, animate, enjoy.</p> 109<p>If you edit your pose, and the animations of 3 small balls, you could make a juggle animation with balls and hands synchronised.
