This project includes the graph editor, dopespheet editor, NLA editor, keyframes, drivers, constraints, armatures, and more.
Status
The module is currently in "Polish++" mode. Existing features of Blender are being polished, and smaller new features are added. The module is quite lively with forthnightly meetings (see below).

Workboard Columns
The workboard is split up into the following columns:
Column | Description |
---|---|
Backlog | Default column for new tasks. These tasks were not yet assigned to a column. |
Short Term | Tasks that were chosen to be performed in a short term (ca. 2 weeks) during a module meeting. |
Bugs | Bug reports that are intended to be fixed within 6 months. |
TODOs | Concrete tasks that have been approved and can be picked up by anyone to work on. A maximum of 10 such tasks will be enforced soon. |
Known Issues | Bug reports that have been confirmed, but which are not actively worked on or expected to be fixed within 6 months. |
Design | Tasks that have conceptually been approved by the module and need design discussions for UI/UX and code. Such tasks can either be converted to a TODO or spawn one or more TODO sub-tasks. See Ingredients of a Patch, as that list could also help in writing design tasks. |
Design done, Low priority | Design tasks that are pretty much done, but don’t have high priority when it comes to implementing them. |
Needs Investigation | for tasks that need investigation to come to a decision whether to actually continue with it or not. This is mostly meant for already-existing tasks that look interesting, but that need an actual time investment before a decision can be made. |
Responsibility of Other Module | Tasks that are related to Animation & Rigging, but are expected to be handled by a different module. |
