Lock undocked Control Panels per puppet, so you can arm and edit multiple puppets
Sometimes its necessary to see how puppets interact. When you select and arm multiple puppets in the timeline there are no controls in the panel.

Label the replays (color and names) along with the triggers assigned to them.
It is kinda weird that the replays don't have the same name or color label.

Add blending to the timeline layers
We can set blending modes in the puppets levels, but i think it would also be nice to be able to blend the layers in the timeline section.

Make example puppets easily accessible after starting a new project
When you first open Character Animator you are given a list of example puppets, but it's not easy to go back to that menu after selecting one.
3 votesHave you pressed the little home icon in the top left of your screen?

More Keyboard Triggers
Open up the other keys on a keyboard to be used for triggers. Especially the Function Keys. Also, would be great to be able to add a modifier on triggers.
4 votesYou can add a parentheses with the keystroke in it at the end of the layer name to automatically create a trigger.

Keep Audio Track Visible.
Would be really helpful to have the audio track locked so it doesn't scroll in the Timeline. Keeping the waveform visible even when scrolling up and down.

Puppet App Player
I sell a lot of puppets, but I, and many other designers, could sell ALOT more if the customer didnt have to sign up for CH to operate the puppet. Bare with me, I have a solution. Its not only the cost, but some people find using the software difficult if they are not use to PC.MAC based programs, many today are use to using simple to load and play apps. What I propose is you build an app player that could operate .puppet files. I am not saying do it for free. Sell it for $50, I can get…

user experience
Greetings: My name is Ken Wampler, I've been a member since 8/28/2015. I don't have a suggestion for software changes for CA (not currently anyway), but for user experience. I've been working on a video for sometime now and I have two charactors which I have done the voices for. I have a need for third charactor which I chose the Caufman charactor to play because he could walk. I needed a voice actor for this and went to fiverr.com for this. I was disappointed with the results. I now see the difficulty in getting good voice matches.
You have…1 voteGlad to have you with us for so long! That’s a great suggestion, Ken. We’ll keep it in mind. In the meantime, while Character Animator doesn’t have our own site dedicated to user creations, there are many user groups online and we do have a Character Animator Forum at:
https://forums.adobe.com/community/character-animator .May be a good discussion to start there and get some other folks in the community to help identify the right location for the idea. But, we’ll think about it too.

CLIP LABELS
Would be nice to have the tracks labeled in the Timeline. The triggers are labeled.
Sure would make it easier to find which track is which.

Alternative to black program interface
Could Character Animator please offer an alternative interface colour ('light') to the black interface - just as Photoshop does, for example. Depending on the time of day, weather etc. it can be really hard to see some screen elements for my setup.

Bug report, I cannot pin my characters to the ground.
Bug report. My characters will not pin to the ground and I cannot find a solution, I've been stuck for days.
1 voteDo you have Fixed-tagged handles (e.g., created with the Pin tool) on the mesh that the legs/feet are on? Would you be able to share a screenshot of the puppet’s structure (layers list with the group that contains the Fixed handles selected) in the Puppet panel?

Bug Report - using left and right arrows no longer causes the Sticky character to walk since latest upgrade
Bug Report - using left and right arrows no longer causes the Sticky character to walk since latest upgrade. It was working fine before upgrade, but as soon as I upgraded, it no longer works.
1 voteDoes this occur even if you create a new scene with Sticky by choosing it from the Start workspace?
Is the Scene or Timeline panel focused when you’re pressing the Left/Right Arrow keys?
Which version of macOS or Windows are you on?
Also, if adjusting the Walk Strength to around 80% works, it might’ve been due to a change in 2.1 for existing projects that have Walk in it. Importing the Sticky example puppet fresh in 2.1 probably doesn’t have this issue.
Thanks.

I want to create Scripts to Character Animator, is it possible?
Where is SDK documentation? CEP PANELS? JSX add-ons?
5 votesStill interested in your thoughts on Dan’s comment below:
“Out of curiosity, what kinds of scripts do you want to add? We’ve considered various sorts of SDK support, but feedback on what ways you want to extend the app would help us decide on how to prioritize those efforts.”

Behavior Strength Percentage
An overall "Strength" parameter for behaviors. I have some eyebrows that are going to high in my position take. Just take the behavior strength down to compensate.
2 votesWhile we don’t have a “global” strength setting for behaviors, eyebrow strength is a parameter in face behavior. See your properties panel.

Criador de Caracteres
Inicio o Criador de Caracteres em meu mac, ele fala a primeira frase para fazer uma expressão neutra e para por aí.

DOUBLE CLICK TO RESET THE SLIDERS
Premiere Pro has an option to reset the sliders of Lumetri Color when you hit twice on them.
Your developing team could add this functionality to all the sliders of all the effects of all the Adobe video & audio apps.
It could be awesome ;)
TKS, Adobe

Isolate Parameters When Selected
When a take is selected in the timeline, just the parameters for the clip(s) are shown, eliminating the hunt for the specified parameter.
Deselect clip(s) to show all parameters.

Folders in Trigger Panel
When there are a lot of triggers/swap sets on a puppet, working in the trigger panel gets unwieldy, It would help if we could create folders in which to put triggers already made, just like we can create folders in the Project panel to tidy it up when it gets crowded.
