Questions about Daz3d’s animation

I looked for videos related to animation on YouTube. In the video,

the character created was animated by simply hovering over the animation presets in the smart content.

However, even if I hover the mouse or double-click, the animation is not applied.

I wonder if there is something I haven't thought of.

I await your response to this issue. thank you

    Hovering over the animation preset only shows you a preview of how the characater will use it; you have to select the character and select and apply (double-click) the animtion preset to the character. When you do, you'll see the preset added to the timeline for the character and the character will be animated.

    If it's an aniBlock, make certain that your figure is selected in the aniMate timeline. Happens to me all the time - I forget to make sure she's selected.

    There are settings in aniMate 2 that allow us to set it to 'display preview animation' (something like that) which grants the animated preview when hovering over an aniBlock. Note that this behavior never occurs for animated pose files, which much be applied to the character in order to view the animation.

     

    Hope this helps
