Using Maud

Overview of the user interface

Maud's user interface consists of 4 screens: "Start", "Editor", "Display Settings", and "Bind". The Start Screen loads first. It merely displays the Maud logo while initialization completes. It should automatically transition to the Editor Screen after a few seconds.

The Editor Screen is Maud's main screen, where 3-D models are visualized, browsed, and edited. There's a menu bar across the top and a message bar across the bottom. Most of its user interface is split into overlapping sub-windows called "tools".

screenshot

Tools

At last count, Maud had 52 tools. Each tool can be independently hidden or made visible.

Selecting a tool makes it visible and moves it to the top layer for convenient use, but you can use a tool without it being on top. The controls in a tool work even when partly obscured by other tools. You can move a tool by dragging its title bar with the left mouse button (LMB).

If a tool gets in your way, you can hide it by clicking on the X in its upper right corner with the LMB. Hiding a tool won't affect anything else, so it's always a safe move.

Clicking a button in the menu bar with the LMB activates the corresponding menu. Menus are modal: activating a menu disables all other user interfaces in Maud. When a menu is active, the remainder of the screen darkens, and the mouse cursor becomes a right-pointing magenta arrow. You can then select a menu item by clicking on it with the LMB or RMB.

Many menu items display icons to help indicate what they do:

  • a right-pointing black arrow to activate a submenu
  • a wrench icon to select a tool
  • a dialog-box icon to open a dialog box or go to a different screen
  • a pencil icon to immediately edit the loaded skeleton map or target model
  • a bone icon to select a bone
  • an ogre's head to immediately load an Ogre model
  • and so forth.

Menus are context-sensitive, so for instance you'll see many more options in the Animation menu when a real animation is loaded than when the model is in its bind pose.

The first 10 items in each menu are numbered. For instance, the first item in the menu bar is labeled "1] View". The numbers indicate keyboard shortcuts for navigating menus. When no popups are open, you can select the View Menu by pressing the "1" key on the main keyboard (but NOT the "1" key on the numeric keypad).

Keyboard shortcuts

Keyboard shortcuts in the Editor Screen include:

  • "." to pause/restart the loaded animation(s)
  • "Esc" to exit from the active menu (or if there's no active menu, to exit from Maud)
  • "H" to toggle the visibility of the menu bar and the status bar
  • "X" to create a checkpoint
  • "Z" to undo to the previous checkpoint
  • "Y" to redo to the next checkpoint
  • "F1" to switch to the Bind Screen

Mouse-button assignments and keyboard shortcuts can be customized using the Bind Screen (or by editing the "Interface/bindings/editor.properties" asset prior to startup) in which case shortcuts described in this document might not work.

Views and models in the Editor Screen

At startup, the Editor Screen displays a "scene" view of a single 3-D model: Jaime, from the jme3-testdata library, with no tools selected.

screenshot

Startup actions can be customized using the "Settings -> Update startup script" menu item (or by editing the "Scripts/startup.js" asset prior to startup) in which case Maud's initial state might differ from that described here.

A scene view consists of a 3-D render of a loaded model, possibly with a background, a 3-D cursor, a supporting platform, and/or overlaid visualizations. Visualizations can include axes, a bounding box, a mesh vertex, physics objects, and/or a skeleton. If you load and play an animation in a scene view, you'll see the model move, rather like it would in a game.

When the mouse cursor is in a scene view, you can use the "A" and "D" keys to rotate the model left and right. (These keys don't alter the model itself, only its orientation in the view.) You can also press:

  • "B" to select the bone closest to the mouse pointer
  • "E" to deselect the selected bone
  • "Q" to open the "View -> Scene options" menu
  • "V" to select the mesh vertex closest to the mouse pointer
  • "W" to deselect the selected mesh vertex

The Editor Screen can also display "score" views of loaded animations. A score view is a schematic diagram, like a musical score, with bones arranged vertically and time (indicated by a gnomon) progressing from left to right. When the mouse cursor is in a score view, the following keyboard shortcuts may prove helpful:

  • "B" to select the bone track closest to the mouse pointer
  • "G" to grab the gnomon and (while key is held down) drag it with the mouse pointer
  • "K" to select the keyframe closest to the mouse pointer
  • "Q" to open the "View -> Score options" menu

While Maud can only edit one model at a time, the Editor Screen can be split to display 2 different models. (This is useful when merging models or retargeting animations from one model to another.) The model being edited is called the "target" model. The other model is called the "source" model.

The Editor Screen can also be split to display 2 views of the same model.

When the editor screen is split, you can adjust the horizontal position of the boundary by dragging it with the RMB.

Views modes of the Editor Screen

The Editor Screen operates in 3 "view modes": "Scene Mode", "Score Mode", and "Hybrid Mode". You can change the view mode using the "View -> Select mode" submenu or use the backtick ("`") keyboard shortcut to cycle through these modes.

With no source model loaded: With a source model loaded:
In Scene Mode... A full-width scene view of the target model A split display with a scene view of the source model on the left and a scene view of the target model on the right
In Score Mode... A full-width score view of the target model A split display with a score view of the source model on the left and a score view of the target model on the right
In Hybrid Mode... A split display with a score view of the target model on the left and a scene view of the target model on the right

Maud's cameras

Each view has its own camera. Generally, the mouse wheel and middle mouse button (MMB) control Maud's cameras. Rotate the mouse wheel to move a camera forward or backward. In scene views, drag with MMB to turn the camera. In score views, drag up/down with MMB to scroll the view down/up.

Scene-view cameras

Beyond that, it gets complicated, since scene-view cameras operate in 2 "movement modes" and 2 "projection modes". The "Camera Tool" (selected using "View -> Scene options -> Camera") is used to select these modes.

"Orbit Mode" is a scene-view camera's default movement mode. In orbit mode, the camera orbits a central point. In orbit mode, turning the camera also changes its location, making it easy to view models from many directions. By the default, the central point is the "3-D cursor" -- a user-selected location, typically visible as a small, black/yellow, 6-pointed star at the center of the view.

Move the 3-D cursor to a new location by clicking LMB on an object in the view: either the model or the platform. The 3-D cursor doesn't attach to other objects, so moving or altering objects in the scene won't affect the location of the 3-D cursor. The "Cursor Tool" (selected using "View -> Scene options -> Cursor") can alter the appearance of the 3-D cursor. The "Camera Tool" (selected using "View -> Scene options -> Camera") can be used to redefine what the camera orbits.

"Fly Mode" is a scene-view camera's alternative movement mode. In fly mode, the camera disregards the central point. This is useful for close-up viewing of places the 3-D cursor can't easily reach, such as the interior of a model.

"Perspective Mode" is a scene-view camera's default projection mode, and "Parallel Mode" is the alternative. In Parallel Mode, the mouse wheel alters the scale of the projection without actually moving the camera.

Standard keyboard shortcuts affecting the scene-view cameras:

  • "Numpad-0" to toggle between movement modes
  • "Numpad-1" to move (or rotate) a camera to a horizontal view
  • "Numpad-5" to toggle between projection modes

Score-view cameras

Score views don't have anything analogous to the 3-D cursor, but you can move the score-view camera up/down by clicking LMB where you want it to look.

3-D models

As mentioned above, Maud always has a (target) model loaded, and an additional model (the source model) can also be loaded. The source model can't be modified; only the target can be modified.

The "Model Tool" (selected using "Models -> Tool") displays basic information about the target model.

Loading (or importing) models from assets

Models are loaded from assets, which may be located in the Java classpath (built into Maud) or in a local filesystem or on a web server.

Before loading a model from a local filesystem, you must specify a where in the filesystem the model's assets are located: select "Settings -> Add asset location", then navigate to the asset folder (typically it contains a "Model" subfolder), and select "! add this folder". Or if the assets are in a JAR/ZIP file, simply select that file.

To load a model as the target model, select the "Models -> Load" menu item, then select an asset location, then navigate to the model file. To load a model as the source model, select "Models -> Source model -> Load", then select an asset location, then navigate to the model file.

Maud can of course load models in jME's native binary format. To be recognized, such models must have filenames ending in ".j3o".

Maud can also import models in other formats:

  • Blender 3D (filename must end in ".blend")
  • glTF (filename must end in ".glb" or ".gltf")
  • Inter-Quake Export (filename must end in ".iqe")
  • Ogre DotScene (filename must end in ".scene")
  • Ogre XML (filename must end in ".mesh.xml")
  • Wavefront OBJ (filename must end in ".obj")
  • Xbuf (filename must end in ".xbuf")

In addition, Biovision Hierarchy animations can be imported as models. To be recognized, such animations must have filenames ending in ".bvh". The imported model will consist of a single scene-graph node without any geometries.

Saving the target model

To write the target model to a file in jME's native binary format, open the save dialog: "Models -> Save". Modify the base file path as desired, and click on the "Save" button. The suffix ".j3o" is automatically appended to the base file path. Note that materials and textures are not saved.

By default, models loaded from the classpath or from an archive will be written to a "Written Assets" folder under Maud's working folder. When loading assets, Maud treats this folder as if it overrides the classpath.

Bones

In jME, "bones" are named parts of a 3-D model that can influence vertices in the model's meshes. A single vertex can be influenced by up to 4 bones. A bone can also influence other bones, called its "children". A bone with no children is a "leaf" bone. A bone with no parent is a "root" bone.

Each bone has a "head" around which it pivots. However, a jME bone need not have a well-defined "tail", a length, nor even a direction.

In a scene view, Maud visualizes each bone as a round dot (red or green by default) connected to its children by lines (white by default). (You can customize these colors using the "Skeleton Tool": "View -> Scene options -> Skeleton".)

In a score view, each bone is represented by horizontal "staff". If space permits, the staff includes a rectangular name label on the left. If the bone is tracked (more about that later) the staff also includes up to 10 stacked "sparklines" bracketed by a pair of "finials". The sparklines, rendered in 4 colors, represent animation data, and the finials help identify which sparkline is which.

screenshot

Before editing a bone in Maud, you must "select" it. In a scene view, the selected bone (if any) is typically indicated by 3 arrows, denoting the axes of its local coordinate axes.

The "Bone Tool" (selected using "Bone -> Tool") controls and describes the target model's selected bone.

Selecting bones

Maud provides many ways to select a bone.

The "Bone -> Select" submenu enables you to select a bone in the target model by name:

  • from among all bones in the selected skeleton, or
  • from among the root bones in the selected skeleton, or
  • from among all bones with attachments nodes, or
  • from among all bones with tracks in the loaded animation, or
  • from among the children of the selected bone.

It also enables you to navigate the bone hierarchy "By parent" or cycle through bones in numeric order ("Previous" and "Next").

The Bone Tool ("Bone -> Tool") provides a more convenient interface to these same selection options.

The quickest way to select a bone is to click the right mouse button (RMB) on or near it in a scene view. This works for both the source model and the target model. However, since bones can appear close together in scene views, and since the RMB is also used to select objects other than bones, use this technique with caution.

Animations

In jME, "animations" are usually found as part of a 3-D model. Each animation has a name and a duration.

Maud treats the model's bind pose like a zero-duration animation for many purposes.

A real animation is stored in an AnimControl and composed of "tracks", usually bone tracks. Each bone track transforms a single bone. An animation need not include a track for every bone. Maud refers to bones that have tracks in the loaded animation as "tracked bones".

Each track is composed of series of "keyframes", starting at time zero.

The (Target) Animation Tool (selected using "Animations -> Tool") controls the target model's loaded animation. There's also a Source Animation Tool ("Animations -> Source tool") to control the source model's loaded animation.

Loading animations

In Maud, "loading" an animation means selecting it for visualization, playback, and/or editing.

To load an animation for the target model, select "Animations -> Load" and then the name of the animation. To load an animation for the source model, select "Animations -> Load source" and then the name of the animation.

Playing, pausing, and pinning animations

Once an animation is loaded, Maud can play it forward or backward at speeds of up to 2x. Each animation tool has a slider to control the speed and direction of playback.

Each animation tool also has a button to pause/resume the loaded animation. As mentioned above, you can also use the "." keyboard shortcut to pause/resume loaded animations.

By default, Maud "loops" to the start (or end) of the loaded animation when playback reaches the animation's end (or start). Using the animation tools, you can instruct Maud to pause and/or reverse direction ("pong") instead.

Using the animation tools, you can also "pin" a loaded animation. Pinning an animation forces all its root bones to the model origin for display (scene-view) purposes.

Jump to table of contents

The displayed pose

While an animation is playing on the target model, Maud typically refreshes the model's bone transforms on every frame. Once the animation is paused, however, the target model's bone transforms (called the "displayed pose") can be modified independently of the loaded animation.

Use the "Bone-Translation Tool" ("Bone -> Translate") to modify the local translation of the selected bone in the displayed pose. Use the "Bone-Scale Tool" ("Bone -> Scale") to scale the selected bone in the displayed pose. And use the "Bone-Rotation Tool" ("Bone -> Rotate") to rotate the selected bone in the displayed pose.

In scene views, you can also rotate the selected bone by grabbing any of the bone's 3 axis tips with the RMB and dragging with the mouse. The axis tips are constrained to an invisible sphere surrounding the selected bone's head, so for many mouse-pointer screen locations, 2 axis directions are possible. While you're dragging a bone axis, Maud remembers whether the axis inclines toward the camera or away from it. You can toggle this inclination using the "S" shortcut key.

The displayed pose has many uses. For instance: To save a pose (creating a new, zero-length animation from it) select "Animations -> Add new -> Pose". To insert keyframes (and replace any pre-existing keyframes) at the current time in the loaded animation, select "Animations -> Edit -> Insert keyframes". To insert a keyframe (or replace the pre-existing keyframe) at the current time in the selected bone track, select "Keyframe -> Insert from pose". To alter all keyframes in the selected bone track, use the "Set all to pose" buttons in the "Keyframe Tool" ("Keyframe -> Tool").

You can also use the displayed pose like a paste buffer, to copy bone transforms from one time to another. For this to work, you must "freeze" the pose so Maud won't overwrite it as soon as the animation time changes. To freeze the pose, either tick the "freeze" check box in the Animation Tool or use the "F" keyboard shortcut. Then go to the animation time when you want to paste and select "Keyframe -> Insert from pose" (to paste to the selected bone track) or "Animations -> Edit -> Insert keyframes" (to paste to all bone tracks in the loaded animation). Remember to unfreeze the pose afterward!

The skeleton map

Once an animation is created for one model, it's a simple matter to copy it to another model, provided both models have identical skeletons.

To retarget animations between models with different skeletons, Maud requires a "skeleton map" to match up bones in the source model with corresponding ones in the target model. (Corresponding bones may have different names and/or indices.)

Furthermore, since jME bones don't have defined tails, it's often necessary to adjust bone orientations when retargeting animations between models. To automate these adjustments, each bone mapping in a jME skeleton map includes a "twist" rotation value.

Maud can load skeleton maps from assets, edit them, save them, and use them to retarget animations. A few sample skeleton maps are build into Maud, such as "SinbadToJaime" which maps Sinbad's skeleton to that of Jaime.

Use the "Mapping Tool" ("Map -> Tool") to load and edit skeleton maps. To do anything with a skeleton map, you must have a source model loaded. To add a mapping between 2 bones, select the source bone in the source model and the target bone in the target model, then click LMB on the "Map" button in the lower left or use the equals ("=") keyboard shortcut.

As long as the 2 selected bones map to each other in the loaded map, the corresponding bone mapping stays selected. You can unmap the selected bone mapping (with the "Unmap" button) or adjust its twist value with the "Twist Tool" ("Map -> Twist tool").

When editing a skeleton map, it's helpful to see its effect on the target model in real time. To do this, click LMB on the "Show retargeted pose" button in the Mapping Tool or select "Animations -> Load -> ( retargeted pose )". With this pseudo-animation loaded:

  • changing the source pose automatically updates the target pose,
  • changing the skeleton map automatically updates the target pose,
  • selecting a mapped source bone also selects the corresponding target bone,
  • selecting a mapped target bone also selects the corresponding source bone, and
  • dragging an axis of the target bone automatically updates the twist value of the selected bone mapping.

To save the loaded skeleton map, select "Map -> Save".

When you're ready to retarget animations between models, use the "Retarget Tool" ("Animations -> Add new -> Retarget source animation").

The edit history

Like any serious editor, Maud provides an "undo" capability.

Maud's undo capability is based on checkpointing the editor's state. Tool visibility and positioning are not checkpointed, nor are shortcut key bindings, but nearly everything else is, including selections, view mode, view options, and loaded models, maps, and animations.

By default, Maud creates a checkpoint before editing or unloading any map or model. You can also create a checkpoint manually using the "X" keyboard shortcut. To undo changes since the most recent checkpoint, use the "Z" keyboard shortcut.

To safeguard work since the last checkpoint, the "Z" key often creates a new checkpoint as well. To redo each change you've undone, use the "Y" keyboard shortcut.

To help you visualize and navigate your edit history, Maud provides a "History Tool" (selected using "History -> Tool").

The edit history occupies heap memory. To release this memory, you can delete the history using "History -> Clear".

Maud places a limit on the number of checkpoints you can have at any one time. The default limit is 8. You can alter this limit using the History Tool.

Scripting

Maud has a built-in JavaScript scripting capability based on the Nashorn engine.

During startup, Maud looks for a "/Scripts/startup.js" asset. The built-in startup script (on the classpath) simply loads the Jaime model. However, if Maud finds a custom script in the "Written Assets" folder, it executes the custom script instead of the built-in one.

To auto-generate a custom startup script, select "Settings -> Update startup script". The generated script will initialize:

  • asset locations
  • global options such as view mode, boundary position, menu-bar visibility, performance debug mode, base index, and tweening techniques
  • most scene-view and score-view options
  • the screen positions of any selected tools

Note that customized hotkeys and display settings are not included in the startup script. Maud has other mechanisms to make them persist.

To remove a custom startup script, select "Settings -> Revert startup script to default".

Command-line arguments

The following arguments can be specified on the command line (or in the Gradle build script) to configure Maud prior to executing its startup script:

  • --forceDialog (or -f) to show the JME3 "Display Settings" dialog during startup. This dialog can be used to edit display properties (such as resolution) in case they become corrupted. If this argument is not specified, Maud shows the dialog only if it believes (based on JME3 AppSettings) that this is the first time it has run.
  • --openGL3 (or -3) to force LWJGL to use the core OpenGL3.2 renderer. Forcing this renderer enables Maud to run on systems with non-proprietary GPU drivers.
  • --skipStartup (or -s) to bypass the startup script. If this argument is not specified, Maud looks for a startup script and attempts to execute it before displaying the Editor Screen.
  • --verbose (or -v) to generate verbose log output. This output may assist in diagnosing certain issues.

Wish list

Maud is incomplete. The following features are on my "to do" list, in no particular order:

  • advance/delay keyframe(s)
  • better support for physics controls/joints/objects/shapes
  • smoother camera motion in score views
  • select bone mappings that don't correspond to the loaded models
  • export a model to OBJ format
  • export an animation to BVH format
  • localization
  • more scene-view options for platform
  • tool tips
  • mirror an animation/pose
  • joint-angle limits for models

Conventions

Maud's source code is compatible with JDK 7.

World coordinate system: the Y axis points upward (toward the zenith). Prior to loading a model that uses the Z-up convention, select the "+Z up" load orientation in the Settings Tool ("Settings" -> "Tool").

The first keyframe in each track must be at time=0.
