Short description of error
Pose Library seems to confuse certain values if you're using locked values with quaternion. That or it just crashes
Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Load below file, and configure folder as asset library
in "ApplyPose" file, right click the action in the asset library "FootRotate" and click "Apply Pose" in my case this crashes. But in my other projects this issue causes corrupted looking poses, or a crash.
Tagging @dr.sybren since this seems to be their asset.
Pose Library: Incorrect/corrupted pose or crash when using quaternions with locked axisto Pose Library: crash when using partially-keyed quaternionsThe pose library assumes that when quaternions are keyed, all their channels are keyed to form a complete quaternion. The locking of the channels doesn't matter.
In this case the crash can be resolved by simply keying all channels (so also W, Y, and Z) instead of only the X-component of the quaternion. This will likely result in a more reliable pose as well, as the foot will rotate around the expected axis, and the applied quaternion will also be scaled correctly.
Still it'll be good if Blender doesn't crash on these.
Then is this a fault of the way blender applies keys?
I would try to key all channels but as long as the lock is present the keys don't apply.
No I see the issue, it's that the method of keying I used doesn't do it.
"Whole Character (Selected bones Only)"
Also doesn't do it with "Available"
I don't believe this issue is solved, in my original project I went through every action and made sure the quaternion keyframes were complete and the pose corruption issue still occured.
So i decided to return to the example project and apply the keyframes for the whole quaternion.
And it's mixing the W and X values on the toe.
Before applying the pose
After applying the pose.
When working with quaternions, it doesn't make much sense to only key them partially. By changing only the X-component, you not only change the angle, but also the rotation axis itself. If you want to limit the rotation to a single axis, and want to only put that axis in the pose asset, I would strongly recommend using Euler angles instead.
Blender's pose library assumes that quaternions are keyed in order, which is what would happen when you use the "Create Pose Asset" button. I've just pushed a fix for this (
5532d05622), so that the FCurves can be in any order (as long as they follow each other without other FCurves in between).Yes I realize this error, the model is old and the project too far along to fix this reasonably. But we can ensure the mistake is not repeated.
And thanks to your fix and explanation if it happens accidentally in the future, it won't cause such sweeping issues!
Well, thanks for the report, it made it clear something had to be fixed ;-)
