WHAT IT DOES

The control-curve shape library for rigging

Pick a shape and work with it any way you need; every shape you add shows up automatically on Fabricator's components.

Build

Fresh control from any shape

Swap

Restyle without breaking connections

Mirror

Onto the opposite side

Combine

Several curves into one control

Recolor

From a shared palette

Save

Your own shapes into the library

ONE SHARED LIBRARY

Add a shape once, it appears everywhere

CtrlEditor

FKIKSplineRibbon…every Fabricator component's ctrl-shape options

QUICK START

Shape to control in four steps

  1. 1

    Open CtrlEditor from the Bridge toolbar, the shelf, or the Rigging menu.

  2. 2

    Choose a shape from the list.

  3. 3

    Click Build at Origin for a new control, or select existing control(s) and click Swap to restyle in place.

  4. 4

    Optional: with control(s) selected, pick a color and click Apply Color.

GOOD TO KNOW

Never lose work

When unbuilding a rig, the system remembers your ctrl-shape choices.

Mirror needs a side token

Mirror needs a recognized side token (L/R, left/right, etc) in the name, and the opposite control must already exist.
