Stacked mode for curves in Graph Editor

Stacked mode for Graph Editor (selected curves are placed one below the other). Update. Pictures in comments

  1. This mode allow you to show and manage your F-curves more effectively in some cases

  2. It allows you to see the “flow of energy” in your F-curves in a more comfortable way

  3. It allows you to control you F-curves more precisely if you move handles of different curves at once when that f-curves are at the same place

* @ Grady * It is in the design task list but there is no free developer to start doing it, so no one knows when its done

P.S. How it is supposed to add pictures and gifs here?..

Using direct links and markdown syntax:

There's a markdown cheatsheet link on the right when you write a message, just under the green Send button.

This mode makes more sense to me than having all the curves piled into one display. It'd be a nice option to have :D

It's in development apparently, we just don't know when it will be done:

Would be great to have this in Blender

Let's implement this useful thing!)

Lauloque

Maybe I'm wrong but the curves are also normalized, right ?

osv Author

@loic.dautry: I have forgotten it already, and my maya license is expired) But as I remember they are not in this example, just rotations

Lauloque

Well I don't know how they could take the same height in the graph if not normalized

osv Author

@loic.dautry: I have no objection for normalize. Let it be normalized)

ChameleonScales

@loic.dautry: They should be normalized when you open it but should allow for zooming out in order for you to move handles.
