BB, thank you for that exposition of the root node inputs.  I wish the Poser manual had that.  Very useful indeed.

     Jag:  thank you for posting your solution.  I get that you were sharing the apparently successful results of empirical evidence;  obviously, if you had known that there was a pitfall in that method, you would have said so.

     BB is right that these things need to be corrected -and bless him for doing so- but on the other hand, it is often someone's experimental attempt at a fix which prompts someone else to fill in the missing pieces, refine the process, or make a correction.  That is what happened here.  But the end result is a successful solution, which benefits everbody reading the forum.

     BB's teaching style is one I'm familiar with from school days majoring in math, physics, and bio-sciences.  He is blunt (not with intent to insult, merely direct to the point - think "male counterpart to Seven Of Nine"), and will challenge you to defend your postion.  This is an effective technique to encourage you to logically reason out how you came to your stated position, which in turn develops into a solid chain of proof-steps, so that you either are able to prove your assertion or you see the point at which your assumption fails.  Personally, I like this style;  it is all meat - time spent reading a BB tut is never wasted.

     The rest of us are all over the spectrum in explanatory style, personality, and areas of Poser knowledge.  When we confer on a problem, we complement (that's complement, not compliment) each other - each person contributes from their areas of strength and in turn is helped in their areas of weakness.    Sometimes, the forum may seem like a contact sport, but the marketplace of ideas works. :lol:
