linked armature animation

Hi.

Is it possible to animate linked armatures from library without appending them.
And without using Edit linked Library add-on.

We will have a lot of scenes/shots and animations with one character.

Is it possible that this feature was in some 2.73 release candidate and now is gone?

Thank

In other words:

Is it possible to make local edits that will override the referenced data.

You asked your question in the wrong animated section. To answer the question, normally when you link in any object from another file, you can’t alter it without creating a proxy (Local Copy) of the item that you imported from that blender file. The only way linked data can be updated is by going back to the source file and make the changes there.

Yes please post these kinds of questions in the Support / Animation and Rigging section…

But a quick answer to your question is … Yes… It is most certainly possible to “Link” items into your file from other files (Libarary Files) instead of just “Appending” them…
