Hi,

I have an unexpected behavior with version 0.18 (currently using 0.18.2) :

when I am in animation mode, whenever I change any node (e.g. change visibility of a layer), then there is an animation point added. This happens no matter if the rec button is enabled or not.

This is surprising to me, because even with rec on, since the behavior is supposed to be "auto add keys when modified input has track", I would expect that that the change has no effect on animation tracks.

If I really want to make a change that is not recorded in animations, I need to move to pose mode, but I don't believe that this is the intended behavior.

I hope that this does not come from a specific setting on my side, let me know if you need any additional information to better understand the issue.

I hope that you will be able to look into this issue, because working with 0.18.x is close to impossible for me at the moment ^^'

Thank you!

Hi, the 0.18 version added the concept of global rest/pose. So when you are in pose mode, any change will be linked to the selected animation. But I see it added an extra complexity to the workflow.

You think the solution would be to add an extra toggle setting if we want our change in pose mode to be only related to the current animation ? Or maybe a setting to choose whenever it should affect only transform inputs.

Of course it could be only if the input has a track, but if we start to make the change and add the key after it will still affect all the animation. I'm not sure, do you have any ideas about this ?

Oh I am realizing when reading my post again that I meant rest mode and not pose mode in "If I really want to make a change that is not recorded in animations, I need to move to pose mode, but I don't believe that this is the intended behavior."

... And about possible solutions, I am really not sure ^^' what I can say is that I don't expect changes that have no corresponding track to be recorded in the animation... But I may be missing something in the concepts of pose mode and rest mode.

I suppose that if a change in pose mode is not affecting animations, then it does not make much sense... Or it should affect rest values? This is what happened in earlier versions, if I understand correctly. It was actually not that counter intuitive: if the change is not recorded in an animation, then it is "global" and "persistent"

I'm sorry, but I don't think that I am able to make good suggestions for this situation ^^' I hope that I could give a few bits of useful information at least...
