Preview a pose in 3D

Propose a landing pose at 0.45 seconds. Show it as a ghost on the active rig and wait for me to accept or discard it.

Find and apply a preset

List the available locomotion presets and help me choose one for a walk cycle. Apply it once I pick one.

Make the arm movement take 25% longer, then add a Footstep marker at the moment the left foot touches the ground.
