Quote - I feel realy dumb asking this question - All together now "the only dumb question is the one you don't..." - but what is "FK"? It's not a term I have heard before.
It stands for "Forward Kinematics". In a sense it is the opposite of IK (Inverse Kinematics). The "normal" way to pose a figure is to use FK, i.e. you modify the angle with a value dial and the computer calculates the position (of the children actors) from it; with IK the computer calculates the angle after you set the position for the IK target.
Quote - Your slaving code appears to use the wrong syntax, it reads: valueOpDeltaAdd BODY:3
fk_ik PointAt
deltaAddDelta 1.00000
Try this instead:
valueOpDeltaAdd
Figure 3
BODY:3
fk_ik
deltaAddDelta 1.000000
Of course the number "3" needs to match the figure number in the rest of the cr2. This should solve the ERC problem, but there may be other problems with maintaining Point At through a save and reload. I vaguely remember haveing problems myself, but it was some years ago, and I forget the details.
Aha, thanks for pointing that out. I will try that.
