learning Aniblocks...is there a way to "superimpose" a few blocks at once?

In the music recording jargon, it's called "overdubbing": record one track, then playback track one recording track 2.  Can the same be done with Aniblocks? I've been trying to get my figure to breathe, rub her tummy and yawn...the new aniblock seems to erase the previous one, is there a way around this?

Yes if you have the Animate2 license plugin you can stack aniblocks   for a layers motions effect. But you have to have the full animate2 to be able to do it  the included animate-lite that comes with the daz download , does not allow for sub tracks which is what you need in order to stack aniblocks  and not all ainblocks can be stacked  either a walk cycle can not overlay another walk cycle. it will do weird things

Where can I find the Animate2 license plugin?  What I found was the tutorial?

Two other quick questions: is there a way to speed up/slow down the Animation playback?  While I haven't found a "Gyrating hips" ready-made AniMate/Aniblock, how complicated would it be to put one together?

Ivy

If you click on the aniblock you can edit it by using the conttrols on top of the animate2 timeline see picture below.

If you double click the aniblock it will expose the keyframes of the aniblock\

Daz has a few gyro hip hop dancing aniblocks in the store but they are for way older generations for v4

I hope that helps

Ivy

I guess I was wrong it looks like Daz has updated the gyro hip-hop dancing aniblocks for genesis8 .too
