Ongoing Work
- High Prio bugs:
- None!
- Christoph:
- Christoph’s weekly report
- Fixed most of the issues of #125971: Test layered Action
- #126655: Anim: Create layered action once for data and action
- Nathan:
- Nathan’s weekly report
- Landed the initial channel groups implementation for layered actions: #125774: Anim: add channel groups to layered actions
- It’s not totally feature complete, but the basics are more-or-less there and can be played with. However, note that there is still a bug that prevents key selection on the channel groups’ rows themselves from working properly in the action/dopesheet editors. This is of course a major issue, and will be addressed in a future PR.
- Now working on updating the way we store data for layered action strips, to better prepare for strip instancing down the road: #126559: WIP: Anim: change how action strip data is stored
- Sybren:
- Animator meeting at Blender HQ, with Rik Schutte, Hjalti Hjálmarsson, and Pablo Fournier:
- Skipped the meeting due to being heads down working on the new animation system, and the animators not having anything specific they wanted to discuss at the moment.
