Key Modeling and Sculpting Features
- - Hybrid polygon/SubD/Ngon modeler
- - Flexible coordinate systems
- - 3D primitives and text
- - Symmetric modeling
- - Pen tool supports structured drawing with snapping
- - Curve creation tools
- - Model over background image
- - Snapping
- - A scene can reference multiple files on disk and then be updated as they change
- - Sculpt or use traditional modeling tools at will (sculpting is not a mode)
- - Modifier keys affect (e.g. reverse) the behavior of sculpting tools so you do not need to drop a sculpting tool to get opposite effect (Push vs. Pull for example).

User Interface and Workflow
- - Fast startup speed
- - Preview renderer updates as you work
- - High quality OpenGL display (numerous shading modes)
- - Orientation videos (modo in Focus) included
- - Renderings begin instantly
- - Undo/Redo enabled
- - 3D navigation method can emulate other 3D programs (or be adjusted freely)
- - Task-specific layouts provided for common operations (like painting)
- - Help system invokes explanations of commands (often with video examples)
- - Familiar industry paradigms used for common operations
|

Key Animation Features
- - Virtually any property can be animated
- - Graph editor
- - Dope sheet (aka Trackview)
- - Seconds, Frames, SMPTE and film code formats all supported
- - modo is able to harvest animation data from other 3D applications in order to render it. modo reads .MDD files for this purpose.
- - Ability to capture animation seen in OpenGL viewport or Preview Renderer as a movie
- - Cut, copy, paste keys
- - Animate while seeing real-time playback
|
- - Ripple keyframe editing
- - Vertex map deformers
- - Morphs (aka blendshapes) can be placed on a timeline and used to drive an animation such as changing the expression on a character’s face over time. Multiple morphs can drive the shape of the item at any given time.
- - Camera and light targetting
- - Animation channel controls can be suppressed in the user interface
- - You can render an animation to a sequence of still images or to a movie file
|
