Reviewer lens
How the term becomes a production question
The review starts when rigger or character technical artist sees FK Control, IK/FK Switch, Control Curve, and Set Driven Key in a note and cannot tell whether it describes source setup, target output, or a downstream fix. That uncertainty is the article's job.
Rig pages should make the control behavior testable instead of describing rig vocabulary in isolation. That makes the glossary useful without letting it become the whole page.
Production notes
FK Control IK FK Switch Control Curve and Set Driven Key Guide: the part a reviewer should not skip
A search result may enter through FK Control, IK/FK Switch, and Control Curve, but the page has to answer the production question behind the phrase. These notes connect the wording to the evidence a reviewer needs.
FK Control - The practical question around FK Control is what evidence would make another reviewer agree with the same decision. FK Control (FK 控制 / FKコントロール) needs motion proof, not only a neutral pose. Test an expected range, an extreme pose, and a reset state so animators know whether the rig behavior is stable. The translation is therefore tied to evidence, not to an isolated glossary row.
IK/FK Switch - Treat IK/FK Switch as a production checkpoint: it should narrow the review, not decorate the page with another synonym. IK/FK Switch (IK/FK 切换 / IK/FK切り替え) needs motion proof, not only a neutral pose. Test an expected range, an extreme pose, and a reset state so animators know whether the rig behavior is stable. That keeps the article searchable while still giving rigger or character technical artist something concrete to approve.
Control Curve - Control Curve should be read through 绑定、蒙皮与高级角色技术, not as a loose label in a translation sheet. Control Curve (控制曲线 / コントロールカーブ) needs motion proof, not only a neutral pose. Test an expected range, an extreme pose, and a reset state so animators know whether the rig behavior is stable. Use the note to decide whether the asset is ready, blocked, or waiting for a narrower specialist pass.
Set Driven Key - When 设置驱动关键帧 or ドリブンキーを設定 appears in a review note, the English term still needs the file state beside it. Set Driven Key (设置驱动关键帧 / ドリブンキーを設定) needs motion proof, not only a neutral pose. Test an expected range, an extreme pose, and a reset state so animators know whether the rig behavior is stable. If that proof cannot be attached, the term should remain in review rather than be treated as covered.
Coverage is counted by the decision the article explains: FK Control, IK/FK Switch, Control Curve, and Set Driven Key should lead to proof, not just matching text.
A term that cannot point to evidence is not ready for approval, even if the translation is correct.
Decision questions
What the reviewer should ask next
- What exactly changes when FK Control is accepted?
- Which artifact would make the same decision visible tomorrow?
- Does the reviewer need a still, a graph, a pass, a cache, an engine capture, or a production note?
- Which term should stay in English because it is also a tool or channel label?
- Where should the task split if FK Control, IK/FK Switch, Control Curve, and Set Driven Key stops sharing one owner?
Decision path
The route from search phrase to signoff
Read FK Control as the doorway into the review. The doorway matters, but the decision sits deeper in control state, deformation range, skin proof, and switch setting.
Move through the related terms in the order the file will travel. FK Control, IK/FK Switch, Control Curve, and Set Driven Key should explain source intent first and target behavior second.
Close with a status that can be audited: what was opened, what was accepted, what is still risky, and who owns the next pass.
Artifact map
What should be attached to the decision
| Term or decision | Why it matters | Evidence to keep |
|---|---|---|
| FK Control | FK Control (FK 控制 / FKコントロール) needs a concrete meaning in 绑定、蒙皮与高级角色技术; otherwise reviewers may accept different outputs under the same name. | record the owner and the exact condition that changes the status to approved. |
| IK/FK Switch | IK/FK Switch (IK/FK 切换 / IK/FK切り替え) needs a concrete meaning in 绑定、蒙皮与高级角色技术; otherwise reviewers may accept different outputs under the same name. | compare the source view with control rig, deformation proof, IK/FK switch, driven key, or animation-ready setup. |
| Control Curve | Control Curve (控制曲线 / コントロールカーブ) needs a concrete meaning in 绑定、蒙皮与高级角色技术; otherwise reviewers may accept different outputs under the same name. | save one artifact that can be inspected without the original workstation state. |
| Set Driven Key | Set Driven Key (设置驱动关键帧 / ドリブンキーを設定) needs a concrete meaning in 绑定、蒙皮与高级角色技术; otherwise reviewers may accept different outputs under the same name. | write the unresolved risk in the task before asking for sign-off. |
Vendor wording
Where vendor wording should cite the decision
When the article becomes a vendor ticket, quote the term paragraph and attach evidence before relying on the glossary row.
| Chinese | English | Japanese | Review note |
|---|---|---|---|
| FK 控制 | FK Control | FKコントロール | Japanese review comments using FKコントロール should still name the DCC file, version, and target output. |
| IK/FK 切换 | IK/FK Switch | IK/FK切り替え | Use IK/FK Switch in the ticket title, then keep IK/FK 切换 and IK/FK切り替え in the description for review parity. |
| 控制曲线 | Control Curve | コントロールカーブ | Do not translate Control Curve as a loose visual instruction; pair it with the output that proves the decision. |
| 设置驱动关键帧 | Set Driven Key | ドリブンキーを設定 | When a vendor uses 设置驱动关键帧, confirm whether they mean authoring state, exported data, or final target behavior. |

FK Control IK FK Switch Control Curve and Set Driven Key Guide FAQ
Who should use this page?
rigger or character technical artist can use it to explain FK Control, IK/FK Switch, Control Curve, and Set Driven Key to producers, vendors, localization reviewers, or downstream technical reviewers.
What makes the coverage article-like instead of card-like?
The page explains cause, risk, evidence, and approval language before the reference table. The table supports the article; it does not replace the article.
When does FK Control need escalation?
Escalate when control state, deformation range, and skin proof are missing, when control rig, deformation proof, IK/FK switch, driven key, or animation-ready setup differs from the source preview, or when another department owns the final verification.
Why keep FK 控制 and FKコントロール beside FK Control?
For FK Control IK FK Switch Control Curve and Set Driven Key Guide, the translated labels are useful only when they point to the same verified production context in rigging and control behavior. Keep the local terms beside the proof, not in a detached word list.
