Why we like it

Clean Graph earns its place in the superhive library by packing eight workflow-specific panels into one Blender add-on, from transferring animation between bones to reshaping f-curves.

What is Clean Graph?

Clean Graph is a Blender add-on from Animation Store aimed at the animation workflow. It covers cinematic scenes, game animations, motion graphics, and mocap, streamlining, enhancing, and accelerating that process through eight organized panels plus animation tape, each specialized in one stage of animating.

Its Graph Editor panels each handle a distinct task. The Transfer Animation Panel moves animation from any bone to another regardless of differences in size, name, or rotation axes, and can combine animations from different mocaps. The Quick Overlap Panel creates overlap animation for tails, cloth, hair, wings, flexible character parts, grass, trees, and motion graphics. The Reshape F-curves Panel builds advanced bounce-ball motion with control over the number of bounces and their strength, alongside common and advanced curve shapes.

Recent updates add a Draw Keyframes tool for inserting and positioning keyframes with a mouse click, an Animation Cursor tool for offsetting and scaling keyframes, control handles on the motion path, and improved UI and performance. It works with Blender 5 and newer, ships as a Blender extension add-on, and a free version is available. A demo video and a tutorial playlist are also available.

Who is Clean Graph best for?
