Feedback from users:

A must-have script for those who use layers like me. An irreplaceable tool that simplifies working with them at times. Reduces the number of unnecessary actions (mouse clicks) very much, which is important for the speed of your work. It also adds functionality for working with layer weights. Mandatory to use! ;)

Advanced Animation Layer tools speeds up the the process of working with motion capture.

The regular method of merging layers sometimes can take up to 10 minutes. With this tool you can merge layers extremely fast without any crashes.
