<p style="color: #000000; white-space: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; margin: 0.1rem 0px; line-height: 1;">You might have to: </p>
<p style="color: #000000; white-space: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; margin: 0.1rem 0px; line-height: 1;">* Read bvh bones and find appropriate hanim joints</p>

<p style="color: #000000; white-space: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; margin: 0.1rem 0px; line-height: 1;">* Find default before animation pose. </p>
<p style="color: #000000; white-space: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; margin: 0.1rem 0px; line-height: 1;">** For hanim, the default is I pose, 0 0 0 between feet facing +Z in+Zout space. </p>
<p style="color: #000000; white-space: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; margin: 0.1rem 0px; line-height: 1;">** For bvh, the default pose before animation may be I or A or T or whatever the animation author chose. It may be the first frame of the supplied animation. </p>
<p style="color: #000000; white-space: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; margin: 0.1rem 0px; line-height: 1;"> </p>

<p style="color: #000000; white-space: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; margin: 0.1rem 0px; line-height: 1;">** The hanim model is +Zout right hand rule facing +z (out of screen toward viewer), +y is up, and +x to model left.</p>
<p style="color: #000000; white-space: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; margin: 0.1rem 0px; line-height: 1;"> ** The bvh model might be drawn and dimensioned in alternative +Zin left hand rule, facing -z with +y up and +x to model left. </p>

<p style="color: #000000; white-space: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; margin: 0.1rem 0px; line-height: 1;">* Test skeleton using animations designed for hanim standard basic +Zout models.</p>
<p style="color: #000000; white-space: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; margin: 0.1rem 0px; line-height: 1;">* Test skeleton using supplied bvh animation.</p>
<p style="color: #000000; white-space: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; margin: 0.1rem 0px; line-height: 1;">** Given the simple comparison of hanim standard vs bvh possible and maybe typical skeleton, then may find that bvh animations use left-hand rule for axis rotations while hanim uses right-hand rule for axis rotations. Simple experiments can appear that either or both of right-hand/left-hand coordinate reversal and/or of axis-rotation reversal. </p>

<p style="color: #000000; white-space: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; margin: 0.1rem 0px; line-height: 1;">* If animation is interesting, Salvage what ever you can to add to the animation library.</p>

<div dir="auto">I have a dream, to create a web page or X3D-Edit control where you put in 0..1 timing key frames, cycleInterval for each, and type of move (select pull down for now), and all the initial animation control code gets generated. And one can save the animation configuration in one’s project for later regeneration. One or more characters per table. And if you want to create custom routes for an animation, that gets saved too.</div>
<div dir="auto"> </div>
<div dir="auto">What type of GUI toolkit does X3D-Edit use? I’m hoping it has something like JTable and can be used standalone initially.</div>
