I've been finally exploring the use of iClone for character animation, and at first it looks very impressive in a lot of ways, and I was seriously considering jumping over to it for composing my animations, but the inability to directly control individual aspects of a character's facial movements makes it unusable for me for full character animation.  Face Key only gives you one keyframe at a time whether you have one or 20 different things going in that frame, with no way to separate them out, or know what is in there. I was hoping that the Curve Editor would allow me access to those. It's too bad, I think CC3/iClone has a lot of great features, but until they add this one, I'll have to keep using iClone as a supplement to my workflow rather than the heart of it.

Another plus 1 for this.
Considering the price of this plugin, (first DCC tool I've ever heard of that charged for a curve editor) not being able to edit facial animation is a little.....um......off putting?

Plus one for this as well!

Yes, this is SOOOO important. Please please make curve editor work with facial mocap data.

Looking forward to this update. I really need this feature for my next project. 

Hi ! Being able to edit expression track curves with Curve Editor plugin, would be a very important function, because it will actually mean to be able to polish facial mocap data, easily reduce the number of keyframes in facial mocap to be able to better control the character's facial performance, etc. Am I right ? I need this function right now for a thing I am doing, but I suspected it doesnt work on facial expressions yet... Anyways.. if this feature is ready during 2020, would be a good addition.. I dont have Curve Editor plugin yet. I was about to buy it specially to clan some facial mocap that has some jitter in the facial expressions... I look forward for this update ! Thanks in advance! Gabriel

Thanks, Peter!

Unfortunately as the team were very busy with large projects in 2019 like Headshot, Digital Human Shader, Unreal Live Link etc. there were no  updates to many of the existing plugins including the Curve Editor.
 At the moment the 2020 schedule is still to be finalised but we should know more soon about the plugin update plans for 2020.

Pssst... Still waiting for a status update on this one. Is it safe to assume this feature isn't coming?
