Feature Request: Real-Time Motion Recording for AccuPose in iClone 8
Currently, iClone 8’s AccuPose (Edit Motion Layer) allows users to pose characters manually, but movements made with the mouse are not recorded in real-time. Instead, users must manually keyframe poses at different frames. This makes fluid character animation with AccuPose slow and tedious.

I propose a real-time recording mode for AccuPose, allowing users to move a character directly with the mouse while iClone records each movement as keyframes on the timeline automatically—similar to Direct Puppet but with full body control.

Proposed Solution:
Add a "Record Mode" button in the Edit Motion Layer panel.
When enabled, every movement of the character’s body parts (via AccuPose) would be automatically keyframed on the timeline in real-time.
Similar to Motion Live or Direct Puppet, allow users to control the keyframe interval (e.g., every frame, every 2 frames, etc.) for smoother animation.
Optional Undo Buffer for easy corrections.
Benefits:
✅ Speeds up animation workflow by eliminating the need for manual keyframing.
✅ Allows fluid, natural motion recording using AccuPose.
✅ Improves ease of use for pose-to-pose animators in iClone.
✅ Helps motion capture artists refine hand-keyed animations more efficiently.
