It is supposed to be an exact mapping.<\/p>\n<h2>Shape Editor and Custom Rigs<\/h2>\n<p>In general, the Shape Editor also works when the rig has been edited (when the Armature was modified in edit mode). However the Shape Sliders behave slightly different for bones which have been edited. Especially when sliders not only scale bones but also translate them (like for example the eye distance slider or the Shoulder distance slider) then as soon as the bones are edited, they only can be rotated and scaled. Any translation component is then suppressed!<\/p>\n<p>The Shape Editor in Avastar behaves in the same way as its counterpart in SL, but we have added a visual hint, that indicates when a slider affects one or more bones with custom joints&#8230;<\/p>\n<div class=\"row-fluid\">\n<div class=\"rhcol span7\">\n<p>Assume you have edited the Shoulder Bones and separated them a bit (see image). This means the Shoulder bones (actually <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">mShoulderLeft<\/span> and <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">mShoulderRight<\/span> to be precise) are now treated differently. Hence we have marked all sliders which directly move the Shoulders with a red background color (see below).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rhcol span5\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/avalab.org\/avastar\/293\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Image-434.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5504 size-full alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/avalab.org\/avastar\/293\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Image-434.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"336\" height=\"228\" srcset=\"https:\/\/avalab.org\/avastar\/293\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Image-434.png 336w, https:\/\/avalab.org\/avastar\/293\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Image-434-300x204.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 336px) 100vw, 336px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row-fluid\">\n<div class=\"rhcol span7\">\n<h4>Red Sliders (What does this indicate?)<\/h4>\n<p>One pretty obscure feature of the SL appearance slider system is that it distinguishes between bones with edited joints and bones without edited joints. As soon as a joint is edited (for example when a bone is moved out of place in Armature edit mode), all sliders which directly affect the bone no longer apply bone translations to the bone.<\/p>\n<p>However Bone scaling remains intact even for edited Bones. To make this more visible all sliders which affect edited bones are marked with a red background (see image).<\/p>\n<p>In this example you see the red Shoulders slider and the Torso Muscles slider indicating that those sliders no longer translate the <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">mShoulderLeft<\/span> and <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">mShoulderRight<\/span> bones.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rhcol span5\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-5931 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/avalab.org\/avastar\/293\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Image-433.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"253\" height=\"434\" srcset=\"https:\/\/avalab.org\/avastar\/293\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Image-433.png 253w, https:\/\/avalab.org\/avastar\/293\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Image-433-175x300.png 175w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 253px) 100vw, 253px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Rebind after Edit (Important to know!)<\/h3>\n<div class=\"row-fluid\">\n<div class=\"rhcol span7\">\n<p>Whenever you edit a custom mesh or one of its Shape keys (if it has), Avastar marks the mesh as modified and adds a <em><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">Rebind all Meshes<\/span><\/em> button on top of the Appearance sliders panel.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\">Important:<\/span><\/strong> Since Avastar 2.81 we have added an Auto Repair option which is enabled by default.

This allows you to test the behavior of your meshes in regard to the Avatar Mesh shape sliders in SL, before the meshes are even exported. However, sometimes a rig becomes so complicated and the creator decides that the usage of the Avatar Shape Editor is actually not wanted. In this case Avastar allows you to disable the Avatar Shape editor by unchecking the check mark in the header of the Appearance panel.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong>Important:<\/strong> <\/span>When you want to disable the Avatar Shape editor, then it is best to set the white Human Shape mode first (see above). This makes sure that your rig matches the neutral skeleton. While this is not strictly necessary we still recommend that you enable the white Human shape prior to disabling the Shape Editor. Then you can be sure that if you ever want to enable the Shape editor again, you will not suffer from unexpected deformations of the skeleton.<\/p>\n<div class=\"row-fluid\">\n<div class=\"rhcol span9\">\n<h2>The Special Sections<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rhcol span3\"><a class=\"mamap\" href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/map-appearance-sliders-1.png\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/map-appearance-sliders-1.png\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row-fluid\">\n<div class=\"rhcol span7\">\n<ul>\n<li>We have added 4 extra sections (<em><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">Changed<\/span><\/strong><\/em>, <span style=\"color: #800000;\"><em><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">Fitted, Extended<\/span> <\/strong><\/em><\/span>and <em><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">Skeleton<\/span><\/strong><\/em>) which do not appear in the Second Life Shape editor:\n<ul>\n<li>The <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><em>Changed<\/em><\/span> section is empty by default and will be populated by the list of changed Shape sliders of your Avastar.<\/li>\n<li>The <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><em>Fitted<\/em><\/span> Section contains all Sliders which affect Fitted Mesh Bones (Collision Volume Bones).<\/li>\n<li>The <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><em>Extended<\/em><\/span> section is the collection of sliders which affect the Extended Bones.<\/li>\n<li>The <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><em>Skeleton<\/em><\/span> section (see image) contains all sliders which affect the bone length of the Avastar character.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>On top of the list (in the Section Header) you see a green dot (a button actually).
