Skeleton View

Skeleton View

The Skeleton View feature in APX allows you to clearly and cleanly visualize the entire skeleton structure of a 3D model within the preview window. When enabled, all bones and their connections are rendered in a simplified manner, letting you focus solely on the internal movement structure without distractions from the model’s mesh or textures.
