I think clipping wasn't supposed to be used for masking skin, wouldn't it be more practical to create a mesh instead that has the shape of the head?

Yeah but did you know that when you create a new mesh you can basically follow the shape of the head and the outside pixels won't be seen just as with the clipping?

Yeah I undesrtand your point here, but do you really need them?

1. those shadows are hardly visible
2. you could do the same with meshes by binding a mesh (or 3 meshes since the ones on the ears look separate) to the bone so that it will expand and contract according to that bone.
3. Actually isn't it strange that a shadow under the ear changes because the guy lifts it head? shouldn't the shadow remain consistent, or a little more visible the whole time?
   I also like this trick to make a face 3dimensional btw (:

In the first video, I don't understand what happens at 0:10. The clipping you created disappears, which is what happens when you exit edit clipping mode without setting vertices (because a mesh, bounding box, clipping etc without vertices is invalid). If you deselect the clipping or select something else, that will exit edit clipping mode and delete the clipping if it has no vertices.

Then at 0:25 you create a new clipping and when you click no new vertices are created, which looks like a bug. I'm unable to get this to happen though. What version of Spine are you using?

When making videos it can help to press ctrl+shift+K, so viewers can see any hotkeys you use.

Sorry for the delay. Pressing ctrl when in New clipping attachment vertex mode had a bug, fixed in 3.6.29-beta. Cheers! :beer:
