In my case the change is disasterous. I am working with a very finely tuned setup angle that takes a long time to get in the first place, and the parenting action throws it off so far that the actual figure I'm parenting the camera to moves completely out of the window!! That's just not workable. The strange thing is, in a brand new window with just posette loaded up, I can move the camera around, pose her, do whatever, then if I "lock actor" for the camera first, then parent it to her hip, everything works fine. It stays put, and moves with her perfectly. But, in another more elaborate scene, even after locking the camera, as soon as I parent it to the figure's hip it moves off drastically. That can't be the way the program is meant to run. I must be doing somerhing wrong or just overlooking something...?
