Temporarily disable multiple dynamic constraints

[systembolaget]

I have grouped 11 dynamic constraints in order to move them together over time. Is there a way to temporarily disable them instead of selecting ever dynamic constraint in the outliner and disabling it in the Attribute editor?

Thanks!

Hi!

Use the Channel Box or Attribute Spread Sheet and set Enable to "off",

this works also for multiple selections, or use in main menu:

Modify > Evaluate Nodes > Dynamic Constraints (uncheck).

Thanks, however, in the Channel Box or Attribute Editor, I can only disable/enable each transform constraint one by one, not the whole group of them at once, which would be far more practical. I don't want to disable ALL transform constraints in the scene, only some of them, which are grouped for convenience. In the final animation, I have three circular curtains with three groups of 27 transform constraints each, and disabling some of them on an individual basis would be rather tedious.

Grouped transform constraints and group-wise disabling/enabling

Hi!

You are right, it does not work with the Attribute Editor, but I did nowhere mentioned to use the Attribute Editor.

It works with Channel Box and Attribute Spread Sheet !!!

Thanks, drag selecting all Enable fields under Shape Keyable of all dynamic constraints of a group and typing off sets all of that group to off. In the Channel Box, I can, however, only disable dynamic constraints individually; when the group is selected for convenience in the Outliner, the Channel Box yields no Enable on or off field.
