Xpose button Subtools Placement

I’m trying to create simple animation videos of my models showing an exploded view. I’ve seen a tutorial on how to do this in the timeline using the “explode” timeline and the Xpose button. Problem is that I don’t know how to edit the endpoint or direction of where my suptools shift to when Xpose it engaged. How can you set those positions or directions? I’ve tried changing the gizmo orientation and it doesn’t have any effect. searching in vain for documention online for this.

Hello @Crhsculpt ,

With the XPose function, you can control the distance that the meshes separate from each other, and the axes along which they do it. This can be done with the XPpose Amount slider next to the XPose button in the Transform palette. In the top portion of that button there are X, Y and Z toggles to set the axis or axes you want the pieces to separate along.

I had seen the distance slider but missed the XYZ. Will give it a try. Thanks!
