that "short alt+up/down" WAS ALL I NEEDED AND COULDNT FIND IT ANYWHERE!!!! Thank you onion skin, i've been sharing all of your videos to my college discord server. SO HELPFUL!

God, one thing that's annoying about the Z-axis that stumped me for the longest time: by default Harmony sets to 3D paths. It's definitely something you should change to separate (xyz instead of 3D path) for defaults. Otherwise, easing means that if you have z movement, it'll try to compensate which can result in stuff shifting forward and back as it oscillates into position, even when you ease what looks like just perpendicular movement. AE actually has the same problem, ironically.

This is an important point. I did an hour long deep dive on 3D paths and separates a few years ago. But it’s such a niche within niche topic that it’s views are still super low. So I think I lot of people who would benefit from that information have unfortunately missed it

Thank you so much for this! I knew about the z-axis, but I didn't realize the alt + arrows was a shortcut for it. Now I can do that rather than zooming in far on the top view and dragging, or - what I've been doing lately - manually going into the layer settings and typing in an infinitesimally small amount as an adjustment.

thank you, that worked so much better then going through 1000 nodes trying to see where the builder put underlays and things.

You, sir, are my savior.

You've saved my life, sir

Sounds like a composite issue. Make sure all your composites are set to pass through!

do you make sure the things has a peg?

Weirdest thing, this suddenly wouldn't work in a project I exported from Storyboard pro to harmony Premium (both v22). Couldn't see any differences in the layouts or settings, though for some reason colour space wasn't selectable so I think there was a connection somewhere. I tried it on a fresh scene and it still works, but when I use Z-axis changes on the layers in the primary project it just makes it zoom from a point rather than go in front of another layer. Edit: solved it. Composite was set to 2d and changing it to 3d flat or 3d enabled z-nudge again.

Glad you solved it! 3D flat is the default so I wonder how it got changed?

@@OnionSkin I was wondering that. Maybe it had something to do with it being directly exported from storyboard pro? I'll check the other scenes and see if they're in the same situation.

@@OnionSkin Ah yup, every scene exported had it set to 2D by default. Weird.

Can you apply this to pegs?

I kinda wish this was possible with normal drawings and not just rigs or with pivots

It is! If you're working frame by frame or on a single layer shapes are nudged forwards and backwards with CTRL+Up and Down. or Right Click > Arrange
