Exporting Position Blueprints

A Position Blueprint is actually an image for reference so that you can assemble each body to the correct position, angle, and size in CrazyTalk Animator. It is highly recommended that you export the whole document as one Position Blueprint image.

1. Make sure the character is completed.
2. Go to File >> Export >> Export Image... and save the whole document as an image file.
3. Convert the Position Blueprint image into a prop and save it to the Prop Custom Library for further use later on. Please refer to the Using the Blueprint to Layout Your Actor section for more information.
