Mirror Pose


This is a tool used to mirror poses, usefull for animating cycles.

The tool needs to have the rig made facing the Z direction and also assumes the default XYZ rotation order... This can of course be changed in the script.

To use is quite simple:

single selection:

     Select a single controller, like the hips for example, and run the tool.
     When only one controller is selected it will flip itself based on rotation only.

two control selection:

     Select two oposing controllers, then run the tool.
     When two controllers are selected it will switch translates as well as rotates.



There is also a commented out line "//global proc mPose()"
This is if you want to create shelf item that flips multiple selections at once

1: un-comment the line to read "global proc mPose()" then save it in your scripts folder as mPose.mel

2: create a shelf button like so:

     select -r r_foot l_foot;
      mPose;
     select -r r_hand l_hand;
      mPose;

and you can add as many as you need, so you can flip and entire rig in one shelf button click!
