Hi Dimos,
and thanks to you and your team for such an awesome tool.
I have a few suggestions that might simplify a lot in term of workflows:

- the possibility to differentiate between your keys and breakdowns even more; like for example having the shot mask changing to a different colour depending on whether you're dealing with a breakdown or with a key.

- I usually use a lot of character sets in maya but the problem is that you can't tell when a key in a character set has all the controllers keyed or not. Being able to differentiate them with different colours would be really awesome!

- the ability to filter your keyframes so that when you select a curve in the graph editor or a control in the channel box you only see it's corresponding keyframes in the timeline , and also selecting a control in the channel box and having it automatically selected in the graph editor


Those are my main suggestions , but I've added a few more, that either already exist or aren't very efficient,  but having all of those tools in one single plug-in would again be a great time saver

* an interactive arc tracker tool built in would be great, with the possibility to change your animation curves by interactively changing the shape of the arc tracker points, a little bit like the AnimPath plugin at creative crash.

* a good ghosting tool; I know that there are a lot out there already but most of them are quite slow

* being able to draw right inside the screen would be awesome for planning, tracking your arcs, reviewing somebody's work....

That's all for now, I hope that some of these suggestions will be considered in the next Tradigitools version.
