Joint Masks

The purpose of joint masks is to conceal unwanted outlines. Therefore, when the character is performing, the joint outlines will not show during the performance.

Take a look at the comparison of a character with and without joint masks in the illustration. The image on the right is not showing joint outlines because the joint masks are in place.

Click on the Joint Mask tab in the Scene Manager, and you can choose any joint mask and adjust it. Be sure to verify the result in every angle so there is no oversight.
