Mirror animation - mirror curve?

    Hi all,

    I have a strafe left animation for a 3D character which I mirror to get a correct strafe right animation. I also have a curve defined for the animation that tracks the leg position. The curve does not get reversed when I mirror the animation, so the animation is reporting that the left leg is up when the right leg is and vice versa.

    Any easy solution?

    Thanks

    Hello @JMab Im also looking for that kind of feature.
    It would be pretty neat if we had some rules to follow to hook into animation clip mirror feature. ie : Custom curve prefixed with `__Left__` would be automatically converted to `__Right__` when mirroring.

    At the moment, my workaround is an editor script that duplicates a clip and inverts those curves. Leading to lot of clips, messy animator, and out of sync clips.

    If you had some insight to share, it would be great.
    Thx
