Preview Feature Documentation

• 2D Animation
• Inverse Kinematics (IK)

Known Challenges:

• Using the Transform Tools for manipulating bones in the Scene while posing and animating is not as fluid as we would like
• The skinning and rigging portion is done in the Scene View along with Hierarchy manipulation and IK setups
