I have a SpawnPoint set up and am trying to set up keyframes with Acid Bubbles Timeline to have a person being animated look at the object I have the SpawnPoint set in. Is there a plug-in to do this? Macgruber's Gaze isn't an option because I need to set head position keyframes in the animation to get the person in the pose I want. Gaze seems to be deactivated as soon as I set a keyframe of any kind for the head.
 
Solution
You can use Gaze together with Timeline. Gaze only controls head rotation, not head position. Hence you can tell Timeline to only control head position and not rotation. Here, I mean the "Control rotation" checkbox:
You should be able to use the eye target control. Isnt that an option? Or am I misunderstanding the question?

That is huge. I didn't know that. From when I first tried it I always assumed they didn't work together.

Awesome. That is exactly the type of solution I was looking for. Thank you so much.
