One embodiment of the present application includes an approach by which an animation system manipulates an animatable object. The animation system detects that a pointer device has positioned a pointer location at a first location, the first location coinciding with a first portion of geometry of the animatable object. The animation system indicates that a first manipulator associated with the first portion of geometry is tentatively selected. Prior to receiving a selection event from the pointer device, the animation system displays a representation of the first manipulator.
A method for manipulating an animatable object, the method comprising:
A computer-readable storage medium including instructions that, when executed by a processing unit, cause the processing unit to manipulate an animatable object, by performing the steps of:
A computing system, comprising:
