Hold position of draggers when puppet is armed
I find it very frustrating when wanting to add more detail to arm motions for example that I can't see the previous position I'd recorded without un arming the puppet.
For example, if I want to create a simple wave motion and have set a basic position for the arm but then want to add some extra motion to it, I struggle to match the original position to then add the extra piece of motion.
The only way I can see the original position is to unarm the puppet - hold the position in my mind, arm the puppet, and…

An option to record in 1.25x, 1.50x, 2x or faster. Same for the playing.
I currently have 6+ hours of educational voice over which has to be animated and it takes me about triple the time to do the animations
1 step: head movement
2. step: draggers
3. step: triggersSo it is taking me around 18 hours of work and it would be nice to have an option for 2x speed recording since the movements required are not that complex....also for the playing

Recording follows playback settings option
It would be really nice to be able to use the work area bar/markers etc. to set in and out points for recording in the same way as for playback.
Maybe I'm missing something, but it seems like that would be standard fare in an app like this. I checked the documentation, but couldn't find anything.

ZOrder Behavior - Reordering Layers at Recording Time
Hi Guys!
I think a feature "ZOrder Behavior" would improve Character Animator a lot!
For example, consider a character sitting behind a table - where both are separated puppets. As expected, puppet character should be BEHIND the table puppet - but the arms should be OVER the table. Today, it's a big problem when you are dealing with different puppets.
A Zorder feature would solve this problem at recording time. By adding this new behavior to the arm and changing a simple index value, the arm layer can OVERLAP another puppets. So, the character arms would appear OVER the table…

Audio drops on Timeline Playhead.
Instead of audio dropping to the beginning of the track (when dragging in), it should show up on the Timeline Playhead mark!
It's mega annoying to have to go back to 00:00 and move the audio to your mark!

Additional trigger keys
Not sure why the keys associated for triggers are limited to numbers and letters on the keyboard. I ought to be able to use other keyboard characters or even combinations of keystrokes to execute various triggers. I know I can add more using MIDI but that seems kind of silly when there are still so many keys on the keyboard that should be able to be programmed for trigger use.

Recorded Swap Set Triggers should play back while recording other triggers
I've noticed that when I have Triggers record enabled, and I'm recording, say doing an overdub of some mouth stuff with triggers, other triggers and swap sets that are on the timeline don't play back, instead taking the currently active or default state of the swap set.
On playback all is well again, but Id really like to see those other triggers during recording as they affect my performance timing on the overdub ones?
Maybe an overdub mode that focuses on only one trigger and the others all playback from the timeline rather than being live?

Stop and sustain triggers
When recording a replay it would be helpful if a trigger would stop/sustain in the same way as draggers do.
After recording a replay I have to go back into the timeline and edit the duration of triggers to match the draggers.

adding video files in timeline
Would like to be able to sync characters to video movements but I can't add video into the timeline. So, that would be really helpful for the series I'm working on. Thanks! :)
