Hi - I come from another 3D program and finally upgraded to Maya. In the old program you could create a “pose slider” - for example if you wanted the top to open on a pocket watch the “pose” would be 0-100 0 being closed and 100 being opened. Then in the animation you would simply select the object set to 0 then further down the timeline set it to 100 and have it open. My question is what is the best way to do this in Maya - would you create a pose, or use a deformer? or something else. Thanks for you help - I have been all over online and looking through several manuals.

What you describe can be done with Set Driven Keys in Maya.

Thank you, I will look into that tomorrow. I appreciate your reply.

for more complex posing, maybe you can try the “recordPose” script
